Love it, nice and smooth down low and great wheel speed. Bags of torque, the stock slipper is struggling and keeps loosening up after a few mins though, glad I'm going over to Gen3 slipper soon

Some more parts turned up today

FI Lockers



Alloy trans case



I'm really impressed with the trans case, everything fits in it perfectly and the machining is really good

Also got some Oilite bearings to replace the pinion bearings when I rebuild the axles with the Lockers and HD gears

I think I am going to borrow the ideal of esc on top. I thought it would fit like others said. Did you use velcro?

Took her out again yesterday











A few issues to work through, the slipper is officially junk, still waiting for my Gen3 from Amain's, stripped the plastic servo mounts, alloy ones now ordered and the beadlocks struggled to keep the tyres on in the wet. Time for an upgrade

Whilst I was cleaning the Wraith I decided to fit the lockers and Oilite bearings to the Pinion gear





Shame I will have to strip it all again when my HD gears turn up lol

Great! No leaks and work great, I took out the bump stops which helps for a bit of extra flex

Finished up my version of the "Bombproof" transmission



Not much Axial left in it now lol

The spec is

RRP Slash Gen3 Slipper
Supershafty Beefy top shafy
Supershafty Ultimate motor plate
RRP Steel idler
RRP Steel diff lock gear
HR Super Duty drive gear
GPM Alloy Trans case
RW 12t 32dp pinion

I had to use a motor spacer it get a proper mesh, it's a Tamiya one I found on ebay

It's running stock 5mm output shafts, I could upgrade these to 6mm but they are not really need for the level of power I'm running
