With Mike, if he doesn't have something, he will get it; if he can't get it, he will make it; if he can't make it, he will get it made. Either way he takes care of you :)

So what is the difference between all the slippers anyway. I mean the conventional location vs the tranny vs the diffs. Which one do I need?

As far as the pitch in gears goes what are we talking about exactly. Mod 1....what the heck is that? All I know is that the stock ones on my emaxx are 32 but I dont even know what that means.

As you can tell Im very ignorant about the r/c trucks. Im just trying to learn.

Thanks, J.

Mod 1 pitch is big. Basically, the pitch means the size of teeth. The bigger the number, the smaller the teeth. Mod 1 is bigger than 32 pitch, more durable.
As for tranny's and slippers. One with a center diff (slipperential) distributes the power more evenly, the one that Mike is selling and designed is morefor racing but can be used for bashing too. What you need depends on what you drive. Are you a racer? Are you a basher?

Nice job keeping it simple Newe!

I'm thinking a "Serumesque" overview on the Basics of Slippers, transmissions, and diffs is in order.

I'd love to do one if I can find the time. I actually want to put one together to "sell" the advantages of the HSR Motorsports SUPER SLIPPER PRO and for Mike's Slipperential.

I just bash, and thats really not that often. Im married with kids and cant spend much time playing. But when I do I dont like being held up with broken parts. I like to go fast and jump. What I want is a brushless proof truck before the monster mamba max is released. My stock slipper on my stock emaxx is toast. The pegs are flush with the spur. I though I would just get some new pegs and a stiffer spring(MGT) as someone suggested as its a cheap way out. however I would really like to solve the problem, not just bandaid it. So I see there are many slippers out or soon to be, but dont really know what to pursue. I dont care about bling, Im looking for parts that work and can take a beating. With that said can you help me find what Im looking for?

Sounds like you want the strobe slipper set up. If you look for the sticky on that, you should be fine. You'll need the mod 1 pinion for your bl motor, then the mod 1 spur, both are sold here in the store. I'd give links to all the itmes, but at work so have not the time, sorry man, but go to the store anyway, there is much there that can be had for good prices, and Mike is the man that can get anything you need if you do not see it there!

Ive looked at the strobe but there seems to be some debate on parts availiability? Maybe that has changed, I dont know. Another thing about the "store" is most items say out of stock. The strobe may not be but I've browsed it many times an it seems a lot of items are out. I suppsose that frustrates me so I dont really consider buying there.

Try emailing Mike. For me, I really don't go anywhere else to purchase online if my lhs does not carry it. the only two times I do is batts, and little things for my jato or 18T cuz shipping is usually 1.50. But for my maxxes, I get everything from Mike. Can't lose!

So dont really pay attention to the store "supply" just call him?

neweuser 02.02.2007 03:02 PM

Call him or emial him. He stated on another thread that out of a hundred items or so, there are only about a dozen that our out of stock, and this is due to supplier generally. But shoot him an email or call, he'll take care of you one way or another.
