So with useing maxx diffs i can go from 165:1 (18 tooth pinion) to 298:1 (10 tooth pinion) at the wheels. These are cut out on a cnc machine so we can do some tweeking if need be. This thing weights 1.1lbs with the 550 motor and the side plates are 5.7oz. Check out the pics and let me know what yall think. The output shaft is not cut to size yet so it is extra long. I just finished the drawings for some axles useing maxx diffs. THIS IS GOING TO BE SWEET ! ! ! ! ! This is the tranny!! http://www.rcpics.net/img/68984 http://www.rcpics.net/img/68985 SIDE VIEW http://www.rcpics.net/img/68986 TOP VIEW http://www.rcpics.net/img/68987 THIS IS THE SIDE PLATE http://www.rcpics.net/img/68988 http://www.rcpics.net/img/68989 THE TRANNY MOUNTED IN THE SIDE PLATES http://www.rcpics.net/img/68990 TOP VIEW http://www.rcpics.net/img/68991 When i get the axles don i will post them.

So far i have not got to much further on the chassis and trany but i have been working on the axles, they are sweet! i will post some pics of them on friday. Hey badhoopty do you realy think that 300:1 is too low? we will see. but the good thing is i can change the pinion and get this: with a 10 tooth pinion the final from the trany is 104.5:1 when that goes through the maxx diffs that comes out to be a final of 298:1 at the wheels but if i use a 18 tooth pinion going through the same set up i get a final of 105.3 at the wheels. i can also change the spur and then do the math to see what i get. and i think the tire size will have alot to do with the final speed too. more pics tomorrow!!! _________________ I FOUND IT IN A BOX OF.....
