I know you've had since the first post, but how do you like the GorrilaMaxx single speed? I'm thinking about getting one my self. Was there much to cutting off the input shaft? I mean was it difficult?
Thanx,
Zack

I actually bash the hell out of it. My wife rathers that I play with 2,000+ toy truck than a 20 year old blond 
(I have a GSX SeaDoo. I plan on taking it out Sunday for the first time this season )

It was easy. I love it. Less weight, less to break. You don't really need a 2 speed with a high power BL set up.
Here is my lame try at a build thread for the single speed. If that doesn't work it does come with instrctions:

I know 1st gear is stupid in my Maxx and it doesn't even have more torque, I guess its a current draw thing. And I really wanna get rid of the shifting servo!! In the mean time I may just find a way to hold it in 2nd...
I think it's a great walk through thread!
Did you get the UE suspension all in one fell swoop, or did you get the racerX stuff off the bay/forums and then preorder the arms? I almost want some Set Backs but I have no way to link them up. You know what I mean?
BTW this basher of yours is starting to get pretty nasty!!

A cheap trick to lock the tranny into 2nd is to glue or bolt the output to the dog shifter thingy inside the tranny. Easier option is to use a piece of fuel tube over the shifting rod (as it exits the tranny) and put a cross pin though it, to hold the shifting rod in place. Piece of piss as we Brits say.

I simply JB welded the coupler to the second gear. Worked better and go rid of the slop.

Some pic's or progress would be VERY sweet. It's been about a month ya know.
And this is just one of several threads that have slipped under my radar since "crawler-itus" has ravaged me 24/7 these last several months. I actually got here thru the hyperlink in your sig. while looking at "Gumball Rally" thread.
Have you decided how you are going to run your shocks with the RacerX suspension?
