|  Big block swap
I got tired of not having enough balls to climb, or stalling out with good traction. So I got a 75t Integy motor.  After testing it out, a motor should be everyones first mod. Last edited by hitman46mod; 12-11-2007 at 09:45 AM. |

Stalling problems with the 55t? Are your brushes hanging up too?

Negative, I was running that Saturn P.O.S. that comes with the truck.  I wish the wheely king had come with a 55t or a 35t would be nice. |

What are you climbing then, I never had a problem with the 27t stalling.

Mine stalls out all the time. My gearing is the stock motor gear(can't remember if its the pinion or spur) and the other is a 96 tooth. Still stall out. I think think the motor shouldn't take all the blame though. My stock battery is about the weakest thing produced.

It's a question of torque. The stock motors have lots of power, but little torque, that's why a stock motor will "hang" when wedged btwn rocks. A higher turn motor will have the extra torque necessary to turn the wheels even when hung up, but at the sacrifice of wheel speed. I've got a 55T motor and have had little problems with it. I find the 55T is a good compromise for bashing and crawling, lots of torque and still enough wheel speed to keep me happy. I think any higher and I'll start slipping the tranny more or start breaking more axles. I gotta say, though, I miss doing wheelies! |

And don't get me started on the com scorching from low speed stuff. Nothing ruins a good crawl more than a motor that won't work till your clean the carbon off the com.  | |

thats a decent lookin rubicon, hitman, too bad it doesnt crawl too well tho. you say thats the 27t motor? maybe its the smallish tires as well.with the stock frame i wont run anything under the stock tire dia. then i run the shocks without spring spacers. but you need the ground clearance to avoid stalling on things like that with the stock motor. |
