sweetness... pick up the rpm rc10t tranny from tower. it drops the ratio down to 2.65:1 and is mucho beefier besides looking cool. i havent been around much over the past year or so, is there a common method used nowadays to lock the ae diff and convert the outdrives? i got stealths and 6gears out the wahoo. it'd be cool to use one in my next project. |

Looks Killer! Trophy Trucks are the sh!!. Man you're just on a roll with these custom projects! Well looks like its going to be awesome and I can't wait to see more progress. Oh and you really know how to use that CADD pretty well. I only use it for construction and geology purposes. I haven't really explored using it for RC's but you definitely make it look easy!

btw, the rpm case is mucho beefier and has a different upper shaft that drops the ratio a lil bit more, not that the regular ol stealth isnt perfecty fine either. | |
