Technical Performance
This complete gear differential represents Losi's commitment to precision engineering for the 22S scale category. The differential is the heart of your RC vehicle's drivetrain, controlling how power from the motor is distributed to both drive wheels and allowing them to spin at different rates when cornering. The Losi Complete Gear Diff: 22S uses a carefully calibrated internal gear set that balances traction during acceleration with freedom of movement during directional changes. The assembly is built from quality materials designed to withstand the stresses of regular use, whether you're driving on asphalt, loose terrain, or mixed surfaces. The compact design fits precisely within the 22S chassis, with no modifications required, and the internal geometry is optimised for the motor sizes and power levels typical of Losi 22 Scale vehicles. This differential will maintain consistent performance through extended driving sessions, providing predictable handling characteristics that allow drivers to push their RC cars harder with confidence in how they will respond.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a gear differential and why does my RC car need one? — A differential is a crucial component in your RC vehicle's drivetrain that allows the left and right wheels to rotate at different speeds, which is essential during cornering. Without a differential, both wheels would be forced to spin at identical speeds, causing the vehicle to understeer and struggle to turn smoothly. The Losi Complete Gear Diff enables your 22S RC car to navigate corners predictably and maintain traction during acceleration.
- Is this a complete ready-to-install unit? — Yes, the Losi Complete Gear Diff: 22S Z-LOS232039 arrives fully assembled with all internal components installed. You simply fit it into your 22S chassis; there is no need to disassemble and rebuild the differential yourself, which saves time and eliminates potential assembly errors.
- What vehicles is this differential compatible with? — This complete gear differential is specifically engineered for Losi 22S scale RC vehicles. If you own a Losi 22 Scale model, this part will be a direct fit-and-function replacement for your existing differential or an upgrade if you are restoring your vehicle to factory specifications.
- How do I know if my differential needs replacing? — Signs that your differential may need attention include grinding or chattering noises during cornering, loose or sloppy feeling in the drivetrain, or wheels that do not rotate smoothly. If you notice any of these symptoms with your 22S, the Losi Complete Gear Diff Z-LOS232039 is an excellent solution to restore your vehicle to peak performance.
- Is this part suitable for beginners? — Whilst this is a component intended for someone with at least basic mechanical knowledge of RC vehicles, installation is relatively straightforward since it arrives as a complete assembly. If you are new to RC cars and unsure about installation, our team at RC Model Shop are happy to provide guidance or fit the part for you if you visit our Walsall store.
