Got my hands on 2spd gearbox idler and drive gear and I must say that they are "a bit" stronger looking compared to the 3spd ones...


(2 speed gears at top, 3 speed at bottom)

I might convert the internals to 2spd just for the heck of it, if I break them again before Kershaw's transmission is here.
Also, I ordered a set of black RPM a-arms since I'm not really a fan of excessive aluminium parts.

I have so many tranny gears laying around I probaly have those to, had my savage since they were released some years ago and just upgraded as I went along. Think the ticket will be the flux tranny parts or the Kershaw tranny your getting, very interested to see how that works for you.
I will update my thread here shortly with good news

You will need more than just those two gears - the idler shaft atleast and probably even more, see the exploded views.
If I have the time (and interest) I'll try to see what exactly is needed or can it be done with minor modifications to existing parts.

New video available, click the pic below to see it on YouTube.



Had to change the esc to MGM ComPro 12018-3 because I got smokes from the LT-6S-150A...
Also upgraded to RPM a-arms and changed back to stock hex adapters, because the E-Maxx ones started to wear from center hole, which caused probs with wobbling tires and changing camber.

ps. Happy New Year!
