Default Question about R2 tranny

im going to be starting an X Factor tuber in a couple of days. I was going to use an E maxx trans, but because of its size im questioning that. What im asking is if anyone has every used an r2 in a super class shafty? it will be running either moab xl's or Lst claws. Could the R2 take the abuse.

you might want to look at the R1 instead although it looks to be a bit on the large size.

Given that the R2 is specifically designed for rock crawling, it should take the abuse. If not, I'd say its a pourly designed tranny, which I know its not.

I have run maxx mashers, maxx size redrocks and 40 series moabs on my TXT 14'r and i havent had any issues with the R2. I would run one in a dedicated super.
