lehner xl3100 any good>?

how heavy is the truck? it would have to be fairly light.

lighter than a t-maxx...no matter didn't win motor but i won the esc for $199 shipped LOL basically $200

hey guys which shaft should i purchase? on the motors?

I'd go for the 5mm, just for durability reasons.

ok cool

well i decided to not go too powerful in fear the tranny will rip apart...and i bought the hv maxx sys now i just need to find the proper gearing..i am not sure what stock gearing is but i need to find out and start from there

From my experence with the hv maxx. It seems to like gearing low. It is only a 380 size rotor in it.

oh ok...well it's just that i fear this tranny can't hold up to the high powered brushless setups!

do you have an idea of internal ratio or something. Maybe we can help out. What about the weight of car to?

no i don't but i can figure it out and i'll post my findings.....i know it weighs less than an emaxx or at least i think lol

I am gonna do some grinding on the motor mount to adjust and from what the guy at the hobby shop said the gear is 32 pitch

I thought I would bring this back instead of starting a new one. I'm thinking about converting my Baja King also, but I only want to use 8 cells (my chargers's limit). Is this a bad idea? I was thinking an 8L, as that would put me at ~30,000 rpm. Will runtime suck with an 8L or a 7L? Is it going to be slow? Previously it had a brushed ESC with dual stock 27t motors on 8 cells but the ESC went. So, my other option is just to get a Super Rooster off eBay and leave it alone. Thoughts?

*edit* Maybe a Lehner XL3600? I wasn't planning on spending that much though.

TRUST me that truck is not worthy.....it takes a lot of tranny mods to even begin to prepair it.........I think you should just try and get an e-maxx and do something with it

What mods can you even do to it? Did you have a lot of problems with yours? I was thinking of an e-maxx, but the truck has some nostalgia connected to it and I've had it for probably 15 years and love it, it's just slow and has crappy runtime with brushed.
