| I'm pretty sure Tower carries them. Edit: they do. http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXFEA5&P=7 Are the Berg gears Metric? I thought I read somewhere they were standard? Last edited by dezfan; 06-30-2008 at 11:26 AM. |

| The Berg gears are metric and you can get them at a main. I believe the other places that carry them will have them in the near future as well. |

| Ordered 12's and a 13 tooth. I figured I'd try the different ratios in each axle I really like it's effect in my super. |

| Front pulls a little sooner then the rear. Really keeps the truck straight on climbs. Sort of like a FWD in snow. The rear at a higher ratio allows it to stall less then the front. 12 rear 13 front |

| I can confirm that they are not 48p "SAE" gears nor 0.5 Mod. There isn't proper mesh by my visual check. 0.6 Mod seems to be the best fit, and I have an assortment of 12-17t pinions on the way. I am also hitting up a pinion cutter to see if we can get 11 or 10t pinions made. |
