| plastic spur with supershafty top shaft, help!
Alrighty peeps, I have searched for this so don't jump me for not looking LOL anyway, im having issues putting together the tranny I want. its a supershafty ax-10 trans with the slash metal spur form rrp. I want to run the axial plastic spur gear so I have a sort of weak link in the system to prevent breaking expensive parts. If I were running the stock axial topshaft, then it would be easy to convert, but the supershafty top shaft has the thru pin design. Do you think I could swap parts straight from a yeti? Any help here would be awesome. oh and im using the 32p gears. |

Why not just run a slipper. Even with mine tightened super tight it will slip enough to save drive train parts under severe binding. |

Weak links aren't really needed. We have parts available that will hold up to the abuse and power we run now. You already have a SS trans, you're already in good shape. |

Haha yeah I've got the finger control thing down pretty good, just thought it might be nice to have a weak link, that and I don't like how loud the metal on metal is. I know it's just being picky, but was curious.
