I run the 55T with 18/87 and 4.75" tires which would be equal to a 19-20 tooth with the 4.3" Ripsaws. The motor is really slow, but an awesome creeper. I'm actually amazed at the level of control you can get with such a cheap motor. I'm sure the HH motors are great, but for my uses I could never justify $70 on a handwound motor when this $15 gem runs so well.

Anywho, I really don't think you could fit a pinion big enough with the stock spur that would over-gear that motor on 2s (if that's what you're worried about), so just go small enough to get your desired amount of "creepability" and don't even worry about wheel speed. It's great for scale crawling, but would leave some wheel speed to be desired if hill climbing is your thing. It's a great motor to run 3s lipos if you have any laying around. It's not a night and day difference compared to 2s, but definitely gives a little boost in wheelspeed (more than I've ever needed). Either way, it is going to be the complete opposite of that 4600kv brushless motor, hopefully that's what you're after.

I got this one too, lol...my Dingo rear lowers were 114.5mm eye-to-eye. You can measure the shorter plastic links that (maybe) came with your Honcho to double check because they are the same length.
