JPH Racing · 03-22-2009, 11:14 PM

Jason: Yes, it fits an SWX. Please let me know if you need a dig, or anything else for the SWX.

ok sweet, don't let this sound dumb please i'm still new to this crazy addiction. but just browsing seeing what i can do but is this the only stuff i have to buy for a dig or do i have to buy a new peice for the rear shaft as well? and right now i currently only have a futaba 2 ch radio would i be able to use a dig with only 2 ch or could i mod my remote to be able to do so?

See65 · 03-23-2009, 08:43 PM

All you need to do to the rear drive shaft is shorten the one you have.As far as the radio u will need 3 channels to run the dig.

JasonF88 · 03-23-2009, 08:49 PM

3 ch remote and receiver right?

See65 · 03-23-2009, 08:55 PM

Correct.

JPH Racing · 03-23-2009, 10:56 PM

Jason: Are you using the stock drivelines? If so, cutting the rear shafts is easy.

You need a 3 channel radio, with end point adjustments and a 3 position switch (2 if you only want 4wd and dig). I've been reccomending the Spektrum DX3R system, works awesome and easy to set up.

Don't worry about the questions, keep them coming!

JPH Racing · 03-23-2009, 10:59 PM

Mike: Thanks for posting the pics! The rig is looking sweet! Have you been comping much? You should hit up the next Nor-Cal or CCRC event at Folsom, awesome spot!

See65 · 03-23-2009, 11:10 PM

Ive been doing some stuff at cap city.I was going to try and make the CCRC comp this weekend but I have to go to Reno so Im going to play out at the moonrocks while im there its close to my dads place.Im trying to get some guys together to hangout with you guys at the next Nor-Cal comp.

JasonF88 · 03-24-2009, 09:29 AM

yes i am using the stock shafts on my ax10. now is there any way i could use a dig and a rear steering kit if i use a mixer and do the tq3 mod or buy a modded one with epa pots already? i'm trying to go all out comp here. there aint any comps around here not even any local courses but after i get this monster built and get my spare one in a better running condition i'm gonna start flying out to comps and joining up with all of you guys to have some fun.

EDIT: could i use this instead of having to get a radio with end point adjustments? this

JPH Racing · 03-24-2009, 10:51 AM

Jason: No rear steer for comps, that's why the dig was invented. The EPA modded TQ should work fine! Stay away from mixers, as there's too big of a delay.

There's crawler guys everywhere. Maybe start a club or group in your area?

JasonF88 · 03-24-2009, 01:17 PM

ok so no rear steer but will that stretcher be appropriate to use with my dig instead of having a remote with end point adjustments, or would this solve my problem without having to use a stretcher?

See65 · 03-24-2009, 01:29 PM

If you use a radio without epas you need a stretcher.

JasonF88 · 03-24-2009, 01:33 PM

would this be a good idea?

Bubba73 · 03-24-2009, 06:44 PM

I agree with sub-zero $$$$$$$?

JPH Racing · 03-24-2009, 08:36 PM

Jason: Stay clear of the mixer, but the radio looks interesting. It does not say whether it's a 3 postion 3rd channel, you might want to find that out ....

Bubba: Not sure what you're asking? Did you get the right thread? LOL

sub-zero · 03-24-2009, 08:46 PM

Even I'm a little confused about that one.
