| Yes it is a nice option. JIA mentioned it in the WK axle breakdown sticky. I don't think I have read of any strippage, but with how badly some of these things are shimmed from the factory I won't be surpised when I do read it. |

| Just mentioning that when you switch to the hardened gears you switch to a 5mm output from the stock 6mm output so you will need to change the drive shaft. I have them on one of my WK's |

| that sucks. Right now I have axle cs, nuckles and cvds in the mail. I have lockers in already. With the hardened gears, some punisher shafts and aluminum cases I might have some bomb proof axles lmao. |

| I think so. I think thats what size the tlt uses. I think I was in another wk thread that the T-maxx uses 5mm shafts where emaxx and wks use 6mm. So you could probably just pick up shafts and bearings for the tmaxx tranney. |

| You don't have to change the pinion bearings as they are already 5x11. The stock WK pinion shaft steps up from 5mm to 6mm. See pic here, http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXPZX2&P=7 |

Yes I am running them on one of my wk's and they have been working great. I don't know what your taking about with gear reduction, they are both 38/13  3:1 is pretty goodI run R2's so gear reduction isn't something I think about a lot...but the RS4 hardened gears are the same as stock  | |

| At the LHS I work at, another guy who has a WK found a hardened MT2 ring/pinion set that has a lower gear ratio. It was something like 14 or 15t pinion and 36t ring. |

WHo made those and can you find out what the part # was? I haven't had any luck finding them. That gearing would actually make the truck FASTER rather than slower. I want those gears! | |
