So, did the TZ transfer case come to life or? Weren't you also working on a truss? New build in the wings...

I love this mount. However my motor is getting dirty really fast. Has anyone found anything to cover the motor with? Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk |

Haven't had any problems with dirty motors, but I mainly drive on rock. Maybe wrap the motor with pantyhose. I know that's what the guys use that drive through dirty water! | |

On Harley's instruction video he says to save the 3 spacers behind the slipper. Re-used 2 behind the spur on the motor mount and 1 on the transmission shaft. My new scx Deadbolt came with 1 long spacer on the slipper shaft. Anyone know the correct part number for the spacers I need? |

Little sneak peak of what's to come. I've been running my tcases for about a year. Everything from club comps, g6 runs, to 12 miles at axialfest. Biggest issue in production I've had was getting the bearing holes accurate every time I cut them. Not enough accuracy to offer them to the public. I now have another vendor cutting them on a cnc so their perfect every time. Working on the mounting plate now, but this will give you an idea of the extra interior space, and the simplicity of the design. Uses all of your stock or aftermarket gears, shafts, and bearings. I designed it so that the input shaft is centered, but it can be mounted in either direction. My drive shaft allowed for the offset, so I'm running it way off to the side so I can still run my battery on the skid plate. |

Cool. I like it. I'm concerned with the open design though allowing garbage into my gears with the mud and stuff I run in. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk |

Just wanted to say, "thank you", to Toyzuki for the incredible front motor mount. Here is mine installed... Bringing the pain since 1968 |

I cannot stress enough how much this mod improves the handling of the SCX10. With the motor up front the battery sits low in the chassis and weight is biased from center to front. My latest SCX10 with this mod crawls like a pro. Bringing the pain since 1968 |
