The unique XRAY Active Differential is a superior, adjustable front gear differential for XB8 buggies
vastly improving the buggys speed and handling traits. The unique design associated with interior components using different angled portions allows the diff gears to activate on-power to increase the forward traction and stability to the buggy, rendering it quicker and easier to drive.
Even though the XRAY Active Differential is a performance option for severe racers who want to gain an advantage on superior speed and control, it is also of great benefit to virtually any degree of driver that wants to an even more predictable and easy-to-drive vehicle in virtually any race conditions.
The Active Differential has been long-lasting tested with great success in all different racing conditions, (like the European Championship and World Championship) by factory team drivers including Yannick Aigoin, Jon Hazlewood, and Josh Wheeler. Yannick Aigoin won the 2006 Euros and Oliver Simon won the 2007 Euros B, both of those aided by the Active Differential aboard their winning vehicles.

Feature Descriptions:
Lightweight Composite Diff Body
Moulded from XRAY's own certain composite mixture, the body wont expand when temperatures increase in the diff. The diff human anatomy is hand-ground on a precision grinding device to make certain optimum roundness, and features a molded-in difficult steel diff outdrive ring with a high-tolerance, precision-ground internal opening to make certain super-free turning associated with outdrives.
Diff Outdrives
The diff outdrives are CNC-machined on accuracy German long-turn machines and are usually made of self-developed, world-renowned HUDY Spring metal the most challenging metal material available. The diff outdrives are also ground and strategically lightened to reduce rotating fat. The diff outdrives are then further hardened to make sure maximum energy and longest lifespan. The diff outdrive shafts are additionally accuracy hand-ground to an extremely high threshold to ensure an ultra-smooth tight easily fit into the diff body and diff gear.
Internal Gears
The interior gears for the Active Diff are die-cast and squeezed from high-grade metal product using quite high pressure to ensure a really strong core, then are specially hardened to make sure minimal wear and longest life.
Diff Gear
The diff gear is machined from unique HUDY steel product that has been especially developed for gear-type services and products, in addition hardened and accuracy ground to fit the tightest threshold requirements for perfect match the diff outdrives. The gears are individually machined on a precision German gear machine and every gear is separately tested and inspected. The diff gear is then laser etched with Active 40T for effortless and instant recognition. An optional 38T gear can also be available.
Active Diff Segments
The Active Diff segments are CNC-machined from very tough metal, and possess very precisely-machined V ramp grooves with various angles for easy engagement/disengagement modification. The sections are hardened to ensure high life. The Active Diff includes standard with a 90° part, while a 120° portion can be obtained optionally.
Active Diff Action
The action of the Active Diff is effortlessly adjusted making use of various internal sections: standard 90° section, or optional 120° portion.
