I've only seen a couple blown up plastic gears, I guess metal would be better for the full bullet proof trany. Here are aluminum ones. http://www.jpcustomrcs.atomicshops.c...30/5831979.htm Last edited by LIKES2CRAWL; 05-06-2008 at 12:19 PM. |

id be more to say wait until you need to replace your stock ones. I haven't seen much crawling compared to the vets around here. From my experience of the original tranny Axial copied the only gear failure I ever saw was poor owner maintenance. Keep it clean, the bearings lubed and she should last for a long time. Spend the money else where on things you need now. |

I would say the output shafts need upgrade more than gears. Im running the hot racing gears and GH racing alum case and VF outputs on the way. So far its been bullet proof. Metal gears are not really needed, but if you do you'll prob never have to worry about em again.
