I just got into the hobby and it just amazing what these companies are coming up with these days! Good work

Hmmmm so compared to the scx10v2 kit trans...the SSD has no more spur/pinion...motor is further forward....weight down low due to metal housing?...more streamlined design (no huge spur cover)...sideways (perpendicular to chassis) CMS.

With the scx10v2 trans...spur/pinion options...can mount a battery up front still...motor not nearly as far forward (battery weight can make up for this), 2spd option...lengthwise (parallel to chassis) CMS.

They both clean up a rig in my opinion. Eliminate a 3rd driveshaft for those running a t-case. And provide room for an interior.

Tough call...

Hawt! Good points Shinjari.

Shinjari · 08-04-2016, 04:35 PM

Thanks Natedog. I think I'm going to end up with both anyways so I may be able to do a comparison haha. Well thats granted my kit eventually shows up and whenever this trans gets released.

Well it seems GCM is offering a overdrive left or right side drop option married transfer case

Already ordered via RPP, may have to get that t-case just for the overdrive option.

Also for clarification is this a right or left hand drop?

You should be able to work out what side the tcase is from the photo.
It's on the drivers side (US). Same as a 1:1 Jeep I believe...

Thanks for the quick reply. While that is true, I'm just used to terms of driver side or passenger side drop.

Looking forward to my preorder. Granted I wish I saw the GCM combo before preordering from RPP

Two different products really. This is an SCX10 direct drop in kit.

True, I do like that feature...but I also like the overdrive the GCM offers since scx10v2 axles do not have that option (yet?)...decisions decisions.

Scx10 II axles will have a overdrive option.

Then decision made/kept. Sticking with my RPP preorder to drop in trans for my scx10 chassis and alter the axle gears when available.

Shinjari · 08-15-2016, 02:14 PM

In stock at RPP. =)

Mine is on the way.

Custom mounts needed I bet.

Zukiiholic · 09-01-2016, 11:38 PM

is there an Exploded view of the SSD Trans Combo?
Just want to know how to take it apart and inspect the gears and Greasing..
I Have my T-case split but that is all I can take apart.. ??

Look inside the tcase. There are 4 screws that attach it to the coupling between the trans and tcase.

Excellent piece of work.
