|  Steel Gear Official Thread
The RS10 Steel Gears are due to arrive around June 15th. I wanted to make a new thread since they are talked about in numerous places on this forum and it can be confusing. Here is the link with image and pricing. http://www.redcatracing.com/RC-Cars/...STEELGEARS-10T Darin |

If you click the "notify me" link on this page http://www.redcatracing.com/RC-Cars/...STEELGEARS-10T it will email you when they arrive, but some dealers might have them for a better price and might be taking actual pre orders. Dont worry though we have around 3000 sets coming. Darin |

Darin, It's been speculated in another thread that the gears are metric 48 pitch, not standard 48 pitch. Are the steel gears going to be standard or metric 48p? Thanks, John |

We decided not to make them because they were going to be such a large investment and we were not willing to do it for the 4 or 5 people that said they wanted them at the time. Sorry -Jason __________________ [CENTER]Serving all of your "Krawler" needs... Find us and our products in the Vendor section or at... WWW.KrawlerHobbies.com so you are making them I am a little confused  Last edited by gunatrytocrawl; 05-25-2010 at 06:22 PM. |

Redcat Racing is teh importer of the RS10 and they are making the gears. KrawlerHobbies is a re-seller and an aftermarket supplier. Two different companies. |

They are the same exact type as the stock plastic gears, but just made in steel. So to answer your questions they are 48p Metric. Darin |

Just installed a set and everything lines up and meshes perfectly. They run a little louder than plastic gears do (all metal gears will do this), but the added torque these can handle will be well worth the little bit of extra noise!   |

yeah i have chose not to preorder as well. Darin made it sound like the 3000 was more then enough to start. hopefully i will be able to get my hands on a set for mine. they look good. i suppose if you were to have a weak point in the drive train that isnt so bad. it will just get sloppy over time. no biggie to me.
