I scored it from fleabay a couple of years ago for $41 shipped . It still work just as good as the newer versions. I'll be making a longer chassis plate.

Gap between the motor and chassis is about 7mm.

Thanks Lito... that's really low in there...

As I said to you two times before in you build thread:
You can keep the diffs, just need the 10T pinions from HB.

I sense a little hostility in the answer there lol

[Maxxrickard]

yes i know that. I wrote that i need new pinions. and i asked for CD suggestions...

[JoFreak]

Yeah well, happenes from time to time when some one askes the same question time after time agein...

But since this time it was a different question: Sorry, my mistake.
As for the CD I think I allready said that you could use any centerdiff, as long as it fits into you mount.
The safest option would be a CD with 44T, this should fit in most configurations.
I know for a fact that Kyosho makes 44 and 46T center diffs, but I'm shure there are many other manufacturers...

As far as better, it depends on your wants from the truck. Do you want a basher and beater, don't care about turning radius or limited slip action all around?

The tranny will provide more gear reduction, which I find helps things run cooler eventhough you gear for the same speed. A tranny will allow all wheel action all the time. Slow crawling or climbing obstacles or maybe mudding wont be an issue.

The CD allows for sharper turning and proportionate power distribution.

Not to mention a lower center of gravity, and semitry in design which some prefer. It looks cleaner and creates a better balance overall.

George I was thinking of making my build nice and clean to unsure of what color scheme to use or motors guess it is going to take some time these are my parts mostly unlimited engineering and some blue hardcore, but I am looking at that mount for sure,Gotta thank plettenburg and billystrucks , these are some pics, Definitely going to be asking questions
