switching from 48 to 32 pitch need help

[redshift]

A buddy has an older Stampy with this same problem... could one of you list the parts required to do the Mod1 conversion?

Again, this is for an older plastic-geared trans, he does have the aluminum idler already. Traxxas or Tower part numbers would be much appreciated.

Other than spur and pinion, I'm guessing only the newer input shaft and slipper assy. will be needed. My other concern is motor shaft length. He's got a few yr old Novak 8.5 5800 kv unit
and with the increased offset of the new slipper I'm wondering if there'll be a problem getting full mesh?

Great guys thanks for all the advise. couple of more quick questions. I looked at towers site and decided to buy the spur listed below. Will this work with the stock pede XL5/VXL slipper ? Is it a direct bolt on ? Also looking at a great planes s-600 motor for a pede with IMEX 5.5 tires. Will the S-600 fit the pedes gear box. I believe I read it will fit anywhere a standard 540 / 550 motor will go.

Yes, pede/rusty/bandit have same slipper as the emaxx/erevo and that spur fits all 5.... I dunno how big that motor is but emaxx motors fit in the pede, just gonna need some heavy duty rear springs.
