T maxx hv conversion

[lincpimp]

Lets see, I got the diffs complete unused on ebay for 20 each. Losi al diff cases are 10 bucks IIRC, brand new from horizon or the lhs. I do not think that the al cases are needed on a maxx, but we will see The diff case is a superior design to the maxx case anyway.

If I can find a machinist who works with plastic i may have some adapters made up, that way the diff would be a drop in, and with mikes input and output adapters a complete setup. The plastic adapters would not cost much to make, a lathe would most likely be the only tool needed. Maybe a mill to make the pinion support? They could be plastic or al, depending on what people want.

LOL I have the same idea trying to get a price on making the adapter out of aluminum, ill let you guys know if I do make a run of these for parts.

Oh and sikes the muggy diffs are 11/45

An aluminum Adapter would be a good idea.

I was thinking I seen a 46 tooth ring somewhere.

A 10/46 setup would be something good to work with.

Did a little work today, got the front diff installed and am looking forward to the mail tomorrow as it has the diff output shafts, adapters for the 8mm pinions to use revo shafts, and a set of driveshafts. If all goes well tomorrow evening I should have a complete roller. I am thinking of flipping the chassis over so that the batteries trays will fit flush, right now the chassis bends up slightly on the sides, and that is where the edge of the battery trays will be.
