The Summit 2-speed seems to be one of the favorites going.

Summit tranny and a dinky cradle, as bulletproof as a 2spd tranny can be The rc3wd option has proven to not be so durable. |

rc4wd has never really been an option anyways. just with shipping to canada kills a guy and to find a local hobby shop that carries the full line... i have a better chance finding a needle in a haystack. another silly question is that summit trans, how much does the thing weigh. jeep 4 door is getting a little full and on the heavy side compared to my stocker

problem: dinky cradle's been out of stock for a LONG time. see if these are still available - Honcho/SCX-10 Summit transmission mount. Removing the slop from a Summit trans - good time to grease tranny |

The slop didn't bother me much being that the tranny is so durable. Durability was a concern for me with a 4pole sensored motor.

if rc4wd comes out with that trans im still worried about finding parts for it. to get them in canada is hard to find a hs that carries the whole line let alone parts. and shipping costs are an arm a leg to get stuff here... an extra $115 for shipping on a trail finder 2 to come to my door... not | |
