Alright yesterday I noticed my Losi's differential feeled like crap,so I decided to clean it.I've never done this before but I went for it anyways,and in no time at all I had the differential out of the truck.I cleaned it down with motor spray.Then I decided to take the screw out of the differential.UH-OH!The liittle balls went everywhere,but I could only find 6,is that how many there are supposed to be?Well I cleaned everything up and put everything back to the instructions,and I tightened the screw for about a good 5 minutes.It never got tight, but it was tight enough to hold everything together.I've disassembled the thing about a good 6 times and re-assembling it but no luck the screw just sits there spinning.The little nut is not stripped out AT all.Any help would be appreciated.And I did use a little marine grease to hold the balls onto the washer when re-assembling it.I'd like to get it fixed so I could race on tomorrow.Thanks,Matt

I think that there is supposed to be 8 balls.
make sure you have all the washers also, i think its also 8.

buy a new nut and plastic carrier for the nut. put the nut in the carrier and ca glue the nut to the cap. you do not need alot of glue. be careful of the threads !!
