Here is going to be a blitz how to on removing the rear diff outta the hpi blitz and tearing it appart and fixing the o-rings in it for leaking diff issue
OK here we go
First Step is to clean the truck first for your not working in dirt
2nd Step Remove the 2 screws on the front of the rear shock tower you will need a
2.5mm allan wrench to remove them you will see them circled in red
3rd Step
You need to remove 4 more screws using your 2.5mm allan wrench you will see them circled in red
4th Step is flipping the truck over and removing 2 screws using a 2mm allan wrench you will see them in this picture circled in red except yours wont have the washers under the screws
5th Step is flip the truck back over now and lift the top mount over and to the left of the truck it is on hinges you can see it in this pic how it is on a hinge
6th Step Now remove the 2 screws using your 2.5mm allan wrench Shown circled in red in this picture
7th Step Once u got the diff removed remove the 5 screws using your 2.5mm allan wrench show circled in the red
8th Step once you get those screws remove pull the cover off the trans and then inside you should see the diff and 2 other gears like in this picture
9th Step once u remove the diff outta the trans housing u will see 4 screws use your 2mm allan wrench and remove those screw showed circled in red
10th Step Once u get the screws removed on each side in the diff one side you will see the gears remove them then under it u will see a small silver e-clip like show circled in the picture
11th Step once u get the eclip removed pull the gear out under it and slide your axle drive cup out then u will see the oring that needs replaced shown circled in red in these pictures
12th Step reinstall parts the opposite way that you took it appart
