yes you want 48 metric pitch. well as far as turns its really up to what you like. 35t is going to have more wheel speed and the 45t is going to have more toque. and pinions is something you are going to want to play with to find out where you like it. you can also change your wheel speed and wheel torque through your pinions to fine tune. i personally run the 45t with 8t pinions. also zno carries the 8t pinions from redat and machines them out to fit the bigger shaft upon request.

so a 35t with a 10t pinion is probably gonna have to much wheel speed right and not enough torque. is a 45t like a happy medium for speed and torque?

great choice one the esc.. I think the best all around crawler motor is a integy 45t and its cheap. If im just crawling and not very much from point a to b on flat I like a v11 65t also by integy

well im going to try out the 45t rc4wd with 10tooth pinions. the motors are cheap and i read a bit about them and they seem like they are pretty good but we will see |

i switched to the 540's long time ago and never had a problem with the pins ever i only went one set of gears also. but might be because i had 100t motors idk but yes one of the best mods done on my rs |
