I’m watching your video while waiting for my B6.4 to arrive. Im currently at minute 26:49 and there are some o rings which are gone in the next shot. I was wandering if they are for the 4 screws in the differential, or don’t they belong to the kit? Thanks for the video, I guess I will rewatch it during the build if anything is unclear.

The four tiny o-rings are option parts to fit between the diff planet gears and their backing washer. They are supposed to add a bit of diff bind to make a gear diff behave a bit more like a ball diff. Sort of intermediate. I've tried them and they make a marginal difference. Not really worth bothering with compared to tyre choice and just using a ball diff..

How is this vs xb2 in terms of parts quality. Weight and performance?

Both have positive. Xb2 parts are excellent but associated shocks are definitely better in our opinion. All the cars seem well under minimum weight

For telling everyone to pay attention to the details. Watching you insert all of the bearings in backyards was pure cringe. HINT: The Blue Rubber face of the bearing is supposed to go towards the outside to prevent dirt getting into the bearing race.

Came here to write the same! To further explain to anyone reading this that doesn't know... The blue ring is the dirt seal which needs to be on the outside -dirt side. Silver side is open and allows dirt in. Bearings normally come with seals on both sides, but AE remove the inner seal to reduce seal drag as there's no dirt on the inside of the gearbox or inside of a PAIR of bearings in a hub -i.e. blue seal is not needed on the inside. But if you don't know this and put the seals on the inside and the open face on the outside it's a facepalm moment -as you might as well have unsealed bearings, they'll wear out fast. Just put the blue sealed face on the outside (blue seals on dirty side).
