could be the diff screw is not set properly... or its backing out.

might want to rebuild the diffs... when you tighten.. follow the manual
i think it was tighten till you the spring compress, and then back of a 1/8th of a turn or something.. its in the manul..

One rule that I have always adheared to is to always use NEW diff nuts every time I rebuild the diff's. That way you avoid the loosenig problem. Cheap fix.

It should have a nylock nut on the diff bolt.I have never had one back off. Ck adjustment as RC MITS has. That is correct adjustment. Okay I can't remember if you can put in diff adjuster and nut in backwards on tc-3 something to Ck.
