What are you guys talking about? They are real ultramaxxed gears for sure, at a hella good price. If I had an emaxx I'd probably buy them at that price, you cant even make them for that. And why is this in the UE section, they have nothing to do with UE.

I think you maybe mistaken, and yes I know that your were one of the testers for Dan, as so was I......the point I was making is that the idlers are not made from the special alloy ( it was brass looking) that he used in the GEN II's & III's of which I have owned a set of each, heck I still have just a set of the idlers still kicking around here,

ahh, yea, didnt see the Gen2 label, but they are Gen 1's. The ones pictured will last a lifetime though, the newer idlers were better though just for a wear standpoint. I wouldnt worry bout it what so ever, if you need gears....those are a bargain. As long as he actually ships everything, you cant go wrong with that set up (cvds are probably junk and are good for just reselling). So if you get $40 out of the cvds, you are in a set of indestructable gears for $50...when the UE idler alone is $30, no brainer there guys.

Bomb, if you just took a second and read the post on the UE forum and compared the 'free items' bonus you know enough. the idlers are aluminum instead of brass. while you are at it, do a search for ultramaxxed on ebay, and you will notice the very same auction by a guy in the UK.. and the UK guy sold 2 of them already, so with these, that's a total of 4 gen II ultramaxxed.. still a believer?

look at both users feedback on ebay, and you'll see some WEIRD negative comments from several other users.

100 percent FALSE.. plain simple...

Now before someone believe you and buys them, please read the posts and report back.

The guy can be and probably is a scammer, I didnt research it, I was commenting on the gears not the individual. I had some with aluminum idlers at one point. It would be possible to have 4 sets floating around also.

The gear sets were not cheap (any generation) and to see that many NEW sets this many years after Dan lost the shop and stopped making them is VERY UNLIKELY in my opinion.

Wish it were true! I'd buy a set!

I had several new sets myself after the fact, but they are long gone now. They are the only thing that makes a E-maxx trans desirable IMO. But ya, could very well be a scam. The gears are correct though, they are not fakes.

those are the coated ones, I have had a set of those as well. They are not titanium of course. I dont think they are knock offs (for one, if he was capable...he would have countless places to sell them). If someone went through all the trouble to make them, they would be selling them...major steps involved in making them. He stole the pics from somewhere.

both auctions are same person (all photos on photobucket as well)

Also note the CVDs are for a T-maxx anyway.

What a coincidence- I was looking at those not 10 minutes ago. The 'titanium' set are just ordinary ultra-maxxed style gears, and so to are the other set- RC4wd idlers dont have holes drilled into them to save wait. Making up that story about having them custom made by an areo space firm is rather interesting, a total lie, but rather interesting..... Some people will do anything to get a sale; I think I'll report him too for good measure.

Edit: Take a look at this- http://s141.photobucket.com/albums/r78/enerpack/?

How handy, he uses the same pics for all his listings. I believe the gears are real- more to the point, the photo is, but the stuff he's actually selling and sends to you is that shiney looking alluminum crap.
