I guess it's time to get moving on this. Our club has all but eliminated the class so motivation has been limited lately. I've got some stuff I can post up though....

OK OK...

I've been running the same Super Bully gearboxes, gears and bearings since I got the axles years ago, so I figured I would start fresh. RC4WD very graciously supplied me with a brand spankin new pair of 65:1 Super bully gearboxes which, upon arrival, were immediately sent to Rick @ SNIPERFAB so they could be put on a diet plan. Rick did his thing and this is what I got back.



I'm going to strip the rest of the anodizing and polish them up. After that, I'll have a little weight comparo between stock and lightened.

Thanks Rick @ SNIPERFAB and RC4WD!

Purdy! It'll be interesting to compare their weight with a similarly modified berg trans and gears.

I'm sure it'll still be quite a bit heavier than even a stock berg. I'm fine with that. To me, it's a fair trade off to have the 65:1 ratio and the durability of the Bully gears. I think I should eeeeeasily be able to cut close to 2lbs. off the rigs total weight RTR.

Negative. These are custom made RCBROS tubes made specifically for the Super Bully 65:1 gear box.
