Cool build, I don't really understand all the classes and stuff yet. How can I learn more about this 3d printed transmission and transfer case?

Definitely following along on this one. I really like the XR width axles. I have a soft spot for 2.2. Very cool build! Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk |

The trans case and t case are designed for the Game Changer chassis using SCX-10.2 trans gears. | |

Got enough done it was time to get out and test. This is with no additional weight aside from the brass brake drums up front and the brass tubes in the front axle. I think I need to go up in spring rates, it feels a little sloppy on off camber climbs. Otherwise it feels really good for a new build and it should only get better as the tires break in and I get the shocks dialed in.  2021-03-28 21.07.59 by Casey Childs, on Flickr 2021-03-28 21.08.46 by Casey Childs, on Flickr 2021-03-28 21.10.54 by Casey Childs, on Flickr 2021-03-28 21.17.59 by Casey Childs, on Flickr 2021-03-28 21.19.51 by Casey Childs, on Flickr 2021-03-28 21.21.36 by Casey Childs, on Flickr
