No more stripped 48p gears and gives you a bit more room if your using a 3d interior.

No more spending money on little spur gears. It also changed the sound, makes it sound like it has more a$$ I highly reccomend 32p

good to know, this has me excited now! what are you guys running for brands of gears?(havent had much luck with robinson racing in my slash 4x4)

Pretty good for general crawling but I've got a 18t pinion for G6 type runs. I'm also running a 35t brood motor, but you'll have more wheel speed from a lower turn motor like 20-27t.

thanks for the good info on this, i took the plunge on sat and bought the parts, running 9 tooth on pinion and 54 spur of course. 21.5 novac is not bad on speed but i have noticed some other new issues with this set up. im not to sure if its just working better or what but i came off of a 14 tooth and 87 48 pitch so close to the same ratio... i set slipper to where i normally set it and it slipped 7 times tonight. cant figure it out. i was on greasy ground too. i cant see raising the ratio up any more will help at all. any info will help out alot

Anybody using a 58t?

Slippers do wear and slipper springs do weaken a bit with use. Plus, the more they slip, the worse they get. Crank it down a bit more or try another slipper pad.

Nope, but I'm sure it will work fine with the proper pinion. I use 56T, personally, as it fits under the tranny cover. The 58T might as well...can't say for sure.

I use a 60t. I don't have a spur cover though I that's your concern. I also don't run a slipper so it has more Clearance with the driveshaft

[jthellfire911]

What part # is the traxxas 32p 64t spur that will fit the scx10 transmission?

[Ruggalo]

new pads are on and set nut is tight and backed off only a quarter turn and im still slipping today... tires have changed today as well. went form weighted 1.9 cut boggers to 1.9 un weighted rocklox's and same issue again. i guess tomorrows adventure is tighten slipper all the way and see how the robinson tranny gears hold up... see a new spur gear in the near future

[Ruggalo]

so i found my issue tonigh with my slipping with the new clutch and gear set. i did not think in 1000 years i would ever see the clutch tension spring actually be week.(could be compressed by hand) after all this messing around i would recommend this mod to any one. the 32 pitch even sounds good imo. now just to play with the ratio's...

Crawler Tech: 32 Pitch Gear upgrade for AX10/SCX10 Trans... - WARCRC

[c0nr4d]

I found a 58t(32 pitch). I put it side by side with the stock 87t(48 pitch) and the 58t looks bigger. I dont think it'll work on mine because with the 87t, it is already really really close to the driveshaft.

solitaire, what pinion are you using with the 56t?

Thanks guys

huge thanks for that link now i know im not limited on spur size, i hate ranting on here but i have had some major issues with the robinson stuff in my slash 4x4's. but this one seems to be holding up. fingers crossed i can get out on sunday and try some more ratio's. i will give a report to try to help people do this mod cause so far other then tires (imo) this is one of the best i have done
