hi all. thanks for all the help with my lipo questions guys. i finally ended up with 1 evolight 5s and 2 evo 25 3s to power me maxx and an e station 902 to charge them. project is going well so far. first thing to do was take out and throw away usless nylon cogs in the gearbox and make sum sexy ally ones from 6082-t6 like this

the nylon ones lasted around 0.05 seconds

also notice the roll pins has been repleced with solid pins on the input shaft. next job was 2 front and 1 extended centre rear drive shafts from 316 stainless like so...

. i also needed some 17mm hexes so back on the mill...

then to design and fabricate 2 chassis rails 40mm longer like this

base plate is just ns4 3mm to test for now, it will be replaced by a carbon fibre custom one off

, thanks for looking hope this inspires others to try a bit of custom parts for your truck. more pics soon bye all...
