I picked up the rc4wd ax2 for the my Jeep kit and have loved it for crawling and some more faster trail runs. I don't run stupid power, only 2s and a 35t brushed motor but still very happy with it and no issues.

Thanks guys! I was leaning towards that trans, but my only other concern is clearance fro shifting servo to a 2s lipo pack.

You can always mirror the trans and flip the skid plate around so the servo would be towards the rear. Better performance that way any way. Less torque twist.

I personally wouldn't bother ... Had the rc4wd AX2 one for 6 months and the problems were endless ....

Alright guys....I'm going to order a 2speed trans here very soon. I need to know for sure which trans is better. I have read that the AX2 trans has issues with weak outdrives where driveshafts connect. I plan on ordering today or tomorrow so a general consensus would be great! So far I have mixed reviews on the AX2.
