LST diff in a revo... - RC-Monster Forums

doo540 · 02.22.2009, 11:00 AM

For center driveshafts I will be using Kershaw Design steel drive shafts. I have RC_monsters 8mm drive cups on the LST diffs and traxxas cups on the erevo tranny.
I'm also running traxxas cvd's at all 4 corners. I have respect for the guys that can keep the plastic stuff alive. I couldn't, trigger finger must be to heavy I guess. I will be trying traxxas new summit axle shafts very soon behind a Neu 1515 1y on 4s. I hope they work, becasue that revo is set up with the long travel rockers and adjustable wheelbase set all the way back. Not a rock crawler but I wanted that truck up in the air.

Oh dear! What have I done

I was worried that with the material taken off the inside of the bulkheads, they would become too fragile so I did the best I could to reconstruct on the outside with melted Nylon Composite from a scrap bulkhead. I believe those rear bulkheads are now very strong but it looks absolutely awful.

fugly bulkheads

I need a plastic welder really bad.

Looks good

You have the right idea though! Urethane Supply Company make some really good plastic welders, and their uni-rod is similar in material to the bulks, so it would be a good item to add for strength.

I checked the link you provided me for plastic welders and did a lot of reading. I know exactly which one I want, I just need the funding to get it. Thanks again for that link, it's great.

They have tons of info on that site. I have used the mini weld model 5 for at least 6-7years now and it has made me $$$$. A little expensive, but I can say that it has lasted. Have fun with it!
