It may, but will require some machining to mount it to the adapter I have designed. The traxxas diff uses the output shats to support the entire lower gear and diff assy. My design is correctly suppoted by the adapter at one end and the diff cup at the other. Superior in that respect.
I would have to see the traxxas gear, but looking at the space available in the tranny for the diff, it will be difficult to get the lower gear to line up with the idler. I think that I can get aways with some simple tranny case mods, and a modded idler.
My method of mounting the lower gear requires the adapter to be a certain thickness. If I could find a suitable gear that had a solid center, I could get the thickness down alot and maybe get the gears to line up perfectly with no mods to the idler...
I will continue with this design until I can get my hands on the traxxas center diff gear. I can design another if necessary!
