Savage Tranny - Got his pants down... now what?? hehehe - Locking it up in 2nd

danhfvcsd, thanks for taking the time to post up those pictures. I will be doing this mod in a few days so glad it worked out for you. Also, why lock the reverse module? I added a reverse module to my truck but plan on re-moving it all together and just using the esc to forward/reverse the motor. Just curious if you have another reason to lock the reverse module that I haven't considerd.

Thanks for the time,

Darion

no worries, i figure if i have the time, then why not =) I'm glad it's helped tho, i sure could have done with it! -lol-

I locked it up because i don't think i can remove it, as i'll lose my 'centre' output shafts/cups... Also, i figured i'll be using brakes and reverse via the motor/esc and thought i'd keep it simple and get rid of everything that wasn't necessary for the setup =)

I'm thinking of getting hold of a spare 3 speed in the future too tho, just to see how it goes compared to this - i will probably lock that up too =)

I added the reverse module about a year after I bought my SS so you should be able to do away wit it alltogether. I'll check out what I have tonight and get back to you, ya may be able to ditch the whole thing.

I'll post up tomorrow,

Check this out, install instructions for that reverse module,

Maybe just get it out of there. Oh ya, just move the pointer to the page yo want to see and you will get a full view of that step.

ahhh thanks mate - now i see what you meant -lol- I was wondering what i was gonna replace it with... i'm kinda slow like that -lol-

Here's another pic that will make more sense than me trying to put it in words -lol-


So basically - all i need is the whole "Transmission Output Shaft Assembly" (my own name for it -lol- just the parts with the BLUE arrows) i think... and this replaces the reverse module, correct? =)

Looks to me like what you will need are the shaft, 86081, and part number 85044. You should already have the bearing and the gear in the trans, not in the reverse module, as it is. look at this page,

I don't believe either of the parts you would need are in the reverse module.

Talk to ya later,

Nice one... i'll order that stuff after i get back from holidays.... but ya know what? after all this - i've just bought a 2nd hand 3spd -lmao- But i will more than likely keep it this way anyway =) it was cheap and i got a couple other lil bits too, so i figured while i was there - why not buy it? -lol-

I must really thank everyone for their input, as without it, i wouldn't have got this done, so thanks guys! =)

No problem at all, for me I'm leaning as I go so these are things I need to know also.

Have a great holiday,
