Dang that looks sexy!

[STANG KILLA SS]

its gonna be a t-case showdown! thats 4 on RCC now.

A shiftable one would b the shiznit, 2wd, 4wd, low, and high range.

even better would be one that has a neutral position for a PTO output to drive a mechanical winch. How bad ass would that be??

Really, really cool!

[keala]

2wd,4wd,high,low, disengage, and pto for winch!

[CadToChrome]

So..........
just what do you want?
do you want servor control on the shift or walk up maunal?
how mave radio channels do most of you have?
I was thinking a servo controled disk brake PTO combo off the rear of a t-case.
Talk to me ?

[Tupers]

I think a PTO would be really cool. I would like to see these things done as add ons so that you could choose to have front axle disconnect or a PTO of both.
I wouldn't worry about channel to much you can get pretty cheap heli style radios now so extra channels shouldn't be a problem.

[BigSki]

I'm guessing, just from a manufacturing stand point, that it would be very hard to make a side mounted PTO provision, like on the 1:1 NP205 T-cases. You would almost need a DIG type disengagment system to isolate any drive power from getting to the axles, but still be able to turn a PTO shaft that would power the winch.

Maybe a constantly engaged drive mechanism from a PTO output that could be engaged at the winch? That way, either a servo or a manual level could be used to engage the winch. Man, this could get interesting...."thumbsup"

[keala]

hell, i would be really happy with 2wd,4wd,disengage(dig), high and low. that would be it man. with that set up, we could have wheel speed and low gearing for torque. if it's possible :)

mfg update, soon to be tested and ready for production
The transfer case is for custom builds, its not a drop in fit in any existing model
1:1 ratio and only uses 2 gears so depending on which shaft is used as input it can be used to either have both shafts spinning in same direction or flip the rear axle and run in opposite directions eliminating torque twist.

[jetboat]

pricing?

[Cave Dave]

How bout the double low box like in my Toyota. A guy needs at least 3 shift levers coming out of the floor."thumbsup"

[Kamikaze]

or flip the rear axle and run in opposite directions eliminating torque twist.



Won't that just make it flex hard one way and not flex well the other?

[CadToChrome]

pricing is not locked in yet but we are guesstimating at $80. or maybe less
depends on how many you guys order:)
the more you order, the less they sell for

@ that price i know id want one

be carfull what you wish for ;-)
I have only just begun to offer new products to you
I'll be updating my 1.9 scale lockout hub set thread very soon
(yes a complete front and rear set with installation tool)
perhaps tomorrow

Unless you are using TLT's that is a pretty poor design. With Axials if you flip them you don't have a good way to do an upper link mount. Unless you have another idea.....

[CadToChrome]

Fipping the axle is not a requirement, It's an Option. We are attempting to add more functional ability to our product. It may take a little thought to make it work for your aplication, but the function is there.

Maybe cut the servo mounts off the casing and flip the axle and use a couple of spacers to mount the centre link bracket ,you can run a flipped Axial rear axle.

I'm Thinking TLT axles, High Lift axles can be flipped, I think original Bruiser axles can be flipped, the RC4WD Ultimate axle can be flipped.

Remember, you dont have to run a flipped axle with this Tcase.

[JUSTGOINGSLOW]

That is awesome, and just built my scaler. I'll love to do some testing for you. Nice fab work. "thumbsup"

[JasonInAugusta]

Man...nice stuff!

Have pics of a fully assembled unit?

Two gears - two shafts. Input on one shaft, both outputs on the other.

yeah but that kind of kills alot of the scale part.

[JasonInAugusta]

It's the way the t-case I just purchased is made.

Single input, dual output, 3-gear.

CAD's case has a more scale appearance but is a 2-gear unit and does the same thing as what I have in hand.

Correct me if I am wrong, with 3 gear unit you can put the input on the dual output shaft side with the rear output on the other side and the front axle on the single output side. The ouptus will all spin the same way not requiring you to flip an axle. I would want the front output on the single side for scale effect, I am aware of driveline angles.

ya sure are being hard on the kid, seems out of character for ya harley. ;)
if ya ask me, this was one hell of a way to make a first post on RCC.

[CadToChrome]

ya sure are being hard on the kid

not a problem, questions or comments is what makes good products
I strive for quality workmanship with high detail and scale looks. If not this product maybe my next one will have him jumping out of his monster mudders"thumbsup"

[NickRummy]

The 2 gear design just doesn't have as much flexibility as a design that uses an idler gear that's all. The outputs are going to spin the opposite direction of the input so you basically only have one option when it comes to hooking up axles. If you want to use the input as an output you can start flipping axles to get everything right but like Harley said that just limits what axles you can use. Bruiser axles have leaf spring perches on them so you can't flip those. The biggest advantage to using the idler gear is that you can have an offset output and use whatever axle you want.

I think it looks fantastic!

Not being hard, just trying to bring up points to look at. If someone is this early in the design it is easier to make possible changes.

Better than telling him I won't buy it once they are already done because of the issue.Transfer cases have become a competitive market in the last two months.

[rcr3fan29]

I think your transfer case looks great. I have to agree that, if possible, a 3 gear case would be preferable. Using Bruiser axles, I can't do an axle flip. Make it with 3 gears and I'll be ordering one when I buy your f/r wheel nut set! "thumbsup"

yup yup.

His will work as is, but a 3-gear would be mo bettah. :lol:

[buster22]

i would love to do some testing with this t case on my yota im building;-)

[scubadaveojr]

nice and scale looking.... the third gear is there so you can run the main gear through the case so if the case for some reason fails, you still have rear wheel drive.
