I was not aware that you could get a 2 speed tranny. I will pass on this info to Harold, he loves fast trannies!

Are you drunk, high, or both? Bumping a 6 year old thread that you were already the last person to post in.

I'd say both especially since he was looking for added length.

I am guessing the BMR stands for Bummer... So you are a bummer for life.... Don't ask don't tell huh.

You must have been drunk, high or both when you picked that kind of handle around here...

Still have this Rustler. I ended up going 2s with a 1415-2400kv and it would rip. Ran cool as a cucumber and was pretty fast. Stepped up to 3s and it became an animal then destroyed the transmission. And so it sits...

Not too familiar with the nitro rustler trans, do they make a vxl equivalent or possibly use some of the e rustler parts to upgrade? The Castle 1415 motor is great, I just bought the latest SCT sidewinder system, mainly for the motor. Plan to run it on 3s in a 4x4 stampede.

Not sure myself... I did swap in the newer style slipper clutch. I'm sure I can get the VXL trans to work. Just need time...

[lincpimp]

Pull the trans apart and post pics. They do share some parts...

[nitrostarter]

I'll try to rip it apart tonight and see. I could probably just use a whole VXL trans but we'll see.

[lincpimp]

But if you do that you will loose that amazingly machined motor bracket...

[nitrostarter]

My butchered junk works

[lincpimp]

Yes it does, till the tranny gives up on you. Harold knows all about trannies giving it up...

[nitrostarter]

Better now??
