Changing the front/rear ring and pinion gears isn't an absolute necessity - as long as you have matched your motor, battery, gearing, etc. to the gears you have, you will be fine.
Even though it isn't NECESSARY, I think it is a good idea to use the truggy ratio diffs(if it was my truck, I would use the truggy diffs). The spiral gears are stronger, quieter and smoother, for one. For another, they allow a much smaller spur while retaining a larger pinion, which will be smoother again as well as last longer.

X1CRT has 13/43 ring and pinion gears in the front and rear diffs - same as most buggies. The x2 and most other truggies use a spiral gear set that has more reduction - this allows use of a smaller spur in the center to achieve the same or similar overall reduction (which is preferred IMO). :)

It should drop right into the Losi buggy and truggy - minor clearancing may be needed to allow space for the slipper, though - the plastic top brace will likely need minor dremel work. :)

Check your PM's, Mr. O. :)
A Savage will require a pretty tight slipper setting, but it should work fine - of course a way to mount a center diff into a Savage is another story. :)

Thanks Mike for the rapid response. Glad to hear that it will work in a heavy truck like Savage. Is there any plan to produce this center diff mount, http://www.rc-monster.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10233 ? I know this is for the emaxx but I bet it would not be hard to use this on a Savage with a center skid plate. I can see that alot of people are interested in this mount as well..

How much larger are house transponders over Personals?

They are about twice as thick, and a bit wider. The main thing is mounting; personal transponders can be put anywhere, whereas house transponders need to be mounted in an easy-to-access location and held in by a body clip.

Any idea if it will fit in the Odonnell ZO1B buggy? Or the Kyosho 777?
Looks amazing, I have any excuse to get a buggy, or run one of my buddies spare 777's

Very nice looking part, and all the replacement parts are very well priced. A+++!
Now for that CD for a savage.... Really I could take that emaxx/gmaxx CD pictured and make it work if it was available.
