Default tranny output upgrade

Hey guys ive been having a problem with breaking the outputs on the tranny of my scaler. I was thinking of upgrading my sportsman and scaler at the same time. I was looking at the robinson racing one piece ( http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/robinson...10-p-2414.html ) and that looks great for the sportsman but for the scaler i was thinking of putting a dig on it at some point so the robinson one wouldnt work. I see the steel outputs they are like half the price but idk if those are an actual upgrade or just a cheap replacement.( http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/ax30544-...on-p-2702.html )

I am running these on both rigs now http://www.ckrccrawlers.com/ax30404-...t-2-p-811.html

If you are planning to go Dig, the axial steel's are the way to go.
The ones you listed (Ax30544) are the deffinate upgrade as they are actually steel, not aluminium.

I have also used 3Racing stainless steel ones without an issue.

You can still use the Roberson one piece gear and then use one of these..




It's the Eritex DIG, the only dig that does not need trans mods....Heath.

The robinson one peice diff is the best you can get for the sportsman.

For the scaler with dig: I used the Robinson Racing HD aluminum output gear with the DNA dig HD outputs. http://www.rpphobby.com/ProductDetai...ctCode=RRP1540

You should also upgrade the idle gear to robinson HD.

Another Vote for the RR one piece gear. Such a solid bit of gear. good luck breaking it.

Another one to look at might be the new crawler innovations out drives that Eddie has just released.

I just installed a set of 3 racing stainless steel outdrives tonight. I snapped one of the stock aluminum ones last week. The way I look at it is that anything steel has got to be better than the stock aluminum ones.

If your looking for good ones. BOWTIE sells some great ones for a better price and yes they are steel.

You can also go to TheToyz.com and he sells some nice stainless that I have had NO issues with.

Yes, see below....


FWIW, I am running both the RR solid in my Pro truck and the 3R SS 2pce units in my Sportsman. Both are equally effective, although the RR unit is behind a Holmes Hobbies/3S combo....
