[quote=the thing that sucks is that im going to have to hope i can turn down my motor down WAY WAY low since the only one i have is a 7700 kv motor.[/quote]


A 9 tooth pinion should do it you still want to have some wheel speed, I think I have some 8 tooth pinions if you want to try that.

Lookin' good! I forgot about that method of driveshaft attachment to the Stealth. I mounted the stub shaft ends of the shafts inside the Stealth outdrive cups because the Revo yokes are a lot bigger and wouldn't clear the spur. Keep going man!

No idea about team valadez this weekend... I am currently still in California. Tucson Winter Shootout is in a week, so after I get back want to crawl a bit before I head out there. Bought a new rig, and will need to get it setup before Tucson. Ill call you Tues night, lets plan on Wed at Little Moab.

Edit: Any others that want to join, lets plan for like 11AM (if that works Andrew) out there, if that works for all. Send me a PM if you need directions or a ride.

Wednesday works for me. Theirs a new spot we need to check out I am calling Byrons Hill 42, because it seemed to take 42 minutes to get in there!:-P:-P Requires hiking through nature, so bring your boots.
Also we can meet closer to the freeway and all pile into (onto) my truck

Lets head to Moab again, I didnt get to see it all. And, I have a new crawler as well : ) Just waiting on a radio to come for it. Think I am prolly going to get rid of it, but it will be pretty nice once I get it dialed in. My old one just works too well...

Lets meet at the parking lot I left the car in last time at say 11:15?

Sounds good, I think Byron and 1 other will be up there also. The spot I was referring to is part of Little Moab, its just south of where we were.

Look in the axial forum sticky you can make a dig from ther that will work on any rig.12.5" is center of the axle stud.I will send a motor with andrew after the comp so you wont break anything else.(free of charge)

The specs on wheelbase is 12.5" from axle shaft to axle shaft and front steer only. http://www.usrcca.com/rules2008.pdf these are the official rules that will help in your build. Call me if you have any other questions.

just my main question is how i would put a dig on my truck. i just got everything working on it and found a pack that is kind of good so just need to mount it now but no wire to run it in the rig. oh one more thing im right at 12.5 inches front to back and with the stock tires im at 10"
