NIce truck George. Yes, I'm ordering that Gorillamaxx single speed convertion and a single motor mount. I have a set of Ti gears and idler I bought from some wanker of ebay, told me it was new, came with lots of dirt and oil. I missed out on the bid for the strobe slipper. Already got the RRP slipper. I'm having problems with trying to put 3.3 CVDs with RPM Revo alxe carriers, Flextek Ti arms with FLM hybrids UE spyder 8 diff together. 3.3 CVD's ball ends are 9mm OD and UE diff cups are 8mm ID, also the shafts are too short. Someone here said UE CVDs are longer, but I'm trying to figure out some other way of doing it, extending my CVDs. I'm also getting the 1/8 diff output shaft from Mike. Hopefully with those and the cups that came with the CVDs will bring it out further. Supermaxx Shock mounts and FLM hybrids don't mix well. Have to file quite a bit on the shock mounts to fit. Will post some photos tomorrow.

Those aren't actually Ti gears, they're made out of hardened steel. I'm using a set for half a year without any complaints.

The UE 8mm cup is installed on the diff for the centers. I don't quite understand when you said 3.3 cvds have a 9mm OD. Are you talking about the center shafts or the axle (diff to knuckle) shafts?

Pictures will definitely help .


By the way, I'd rather have a stock motor mount than a single motor mount. The additional surface area of the single motor mount acts as a heat sink and helps dissipate the heat from the motor.

Strange, yet obvious, easily overlooked, and true. I found that out for myself- the custom mount I made was really rather warm after a good run, so it one was to maybe stick a custom made moutn with cooling fins and extra surface area, it wouldnt be a bad thing....
