Motor just makes too much power (and I'm rough on them) I want to switch to 32 pitch gears but don't know how to figure out the gearing using te new pitch. Also where can I get spurs that'll work with the stock slipper ?

Thanks

I have a VXL Rustler that I have tried all the pitch combos if you want to go 32 pitch the Jato spurs will work (54,56,58 I believe) you can combine this with a 14-17 tooth pinion and my favorite is the Mod 1 combo using a 40 tooth Revo spur and Mod 1 16 tooth pinion , this maybe a little over geared but not bad, the Mod 1 has the bigger teeth
