    I will be yanking mine out in a few weeks to check on the axles, and might look into a new pin...

    Did you upgrade your pin, or did you reuse the OEM pin?

    Keep the mini-spool on the dirt track where it belongs.

    Yeah, it's cheap, but is it worth it?
    They can be destructive and dangerous.

    That is why they make differentials. A spool has no differential to it.

    Ask youself: Has the factory ever put a spool in a showroom new car? EVER???
    No.
    There is a reason for that.

    Last mini-spool I bought had big letters on the packaging, "For dirt track use only!"
    I thought better and sold it to someone who really needed it.

    Too much liability.
