    For the new 2024 versions (the red and yellow body colors), can anyone confirm if there are any mechanical differences from the prior versions? 2 items specifically:
    1. Are the differentials built with 2 planetary gears or 4? Prior versions were built with 2 and grease-filled, not oil, which worked but required a rebuild to tune and strengthen.
    2. Are front and rear anti-roll bars included on this version? They were not on prior versions and had to be purchased separately. I've seen conflicting information about whether they come installed or not on the current version.
    3. Any other mechanical changes from the previous versions other than the new cosmetic body graphic schemes?

    Thanks!

      1. They have the same setup; 2 spider gears.
      2. The sway bars are not included and have to be purchased separately. The part numbers are IFW104B and IF117.
      3. There are no other mechanical changes from the previous versions.
