Yeah I could use something like that. Need to move the transfer case over slightly though to accomodate the straight shot, as it is its slightly offset. Would need to get the measurements on length for you.

[Die-Laughing]

It's not rigid. You can probably leave the t-case where it is. You might have to move the t-case forward or back depending on how close the length is. If I can't get ahold of saydee's piece.. I'll need an MIP driveshaft to look at/take apart & measure. And, i'll need a picture of your current setup to see how severe of an angle it'll have to be capable of.

You will not need to move. But of course straighter is better

it has just as much angle capacity as a mip driveshaft does, but it just doesnt have splines. its just the same as if you took a mip shaft and cut/welded it.

I think that might be stronger. I have seen it done.

[thzero]

Well got it all together and promptly stripped the 48p, 80t spur gear. Guess on Sat. I need to see if LiTH has some 9-11t 32p pinions to use a 54t 32p Traxxas spur gear with it.

[BAD 1]

Did not forget about comp vid. Spent 1 hr editing 1 vid. Wish I knew what I was doing. Loaded a few on utube.

[gottwins?]

Anyone racing tonight? I haven't decided if I'm going to LITH or Streamwood though.

[johnnyh66]

Zero, do you have a futaba warpig spool?
I'll buy it off ya or trade for a hitec spool.

I wish I could go tomorrow but family stuff going on out of town takes priority.

[WarTrader]

I'm going tomorrow prolly gonna show a little early gotta temp check both trucks. Not to mention my wife has family in town tomorrow.... Me making myself scarce. going out tonight Gotta try and stay sober don't wanna fight crappy driving and a hang over LOL. Man that takes the fun out of it.

[JHTreyIII]

Prob not a bad idea. I got there at 10:00 last time and almost couldn't find a pit spot! If you do beat us there make a point to take up a lot of room so one of us can fit in there if need be. I may try to get there earlier tomorrow.

I feel like crud! Had a cold or something for about a week. I was thinking about backing out but I was sure zero would just bash me for it. Damn that zero guy.

Anyway...I'll be there. I'll be there to show those guys I can do a mean 35th place!
