On my arrma typhon I broke a few plastic diffs when driven very hard, BMX track and big jumps. Upgraded to the metal diffs and they have been holding up pretty well. I make shure to grease the diff very often and it feels like the car is rev’ing much faster, sounds more angry and more punch in the throttle. They seem to hold up very well, so my next upgrade might be a 4s setup.
I like the 3s rigs, they are so easy to work on and I know all the weak spots and have my own «fix» for many of those. And I always «paint» my car with WD40 wich make all the plastic very flexible so it hardly ever breaks.

I ditched the metal CVD driveshafts. Main reason is you can't use the Typhon axles with them. I snapped/bent alot of stock axles. Second reason is I actually snapped one. Popping u-joints is a problem with the stock plastic, but I've NEVER snapped one. Third reason is the significant added weight which reduces performance and durability. So far loosening the slipper (1-1/4 from full tight) seems to be the solution to using stock plastic driveshafts without popping u-joints often.

Maybe the rear went bad because 100% of the power was going to it when you ran it in 2 wheel drive for a while? Just a thought.
