Default just ordered mine from the hpi site

ok guys so I was looking on the hpi site at the options parts for the wheely king and hpi has a gear reduction box that you can put on it and it gears it down to like 174:1 gear ratio. so I just ordered mine this morning so I will let you guys know what happen when I get it and get it on my wk. but I thought it looked pretty sweet.

REDUCTION GEAR BOX SET (WHEELY KING) Click the image to open in full size. # 87634 Wheely King / 1:7.4 Ratio Reduction Gear Box
Transform the Wheely King truck into a rock crawling beast with this Reduction Gear Box Set. This genuine HPI factory approved gear box bolts right into any Wheely King for a perfect fit. It contains a tough metal case, ball bearings and all-metal gears for extra durability. The gear ratio is transformed from 23:1 on the stock truck to a whopping 174:1 after the installation. This Reduction Gear Box Set is perfect for rock crawling because it delivers stump pulling torque and the power to climb any slope.

Recommended for use with #87633 Wheely King Crawler Conversion Set, but it can also be used individually or as the basis for a custom project.

well I got and e-mail from hpi, and I won;t be getting my gear reduction box. they said that they could not process my order because their system came back with an error and wouldn't approve my card for some stupid reason and I don't know why. I used my billing address that my statment comes to. So it should have worked. so now I have to wait until monday to try to order it again. It pisses me off.
