Clod has 32 pitch gears and the TLT uses 48 ptich gears so they are incompatible. Keep searching about the tranny. There's a million threads on it. But I would say use JB Weld or some sort of epoxy. Gonna need to put some sort of tensioner on that belt too... locking center diff tlt? Last edited by K_B; 06-28-2006 at 12:25 PM. |

it will take some noodling around, but if you get it in just right, the covers will fit on there perfectly... i just finished my tlt build, but i used the tracer chasis 1/10 conversion kit, very nice, alloy shock mounts etc etc... type "tracer tlt" in the bay and it should pop up... there are also alot of nice parts from the same manufacturer, but if you order the conversion kit, it comes with everything you will want... as for your belt tranny, there are a coupla ways to lock your ball differential inside the tranny.... tighten the crap out of it, (it will still slip a little... i tried this and i didn't like it) jb weld, crazy glue (these are permanent, just put the glue over the ball bearings inbetween the plates and make sure that you cant spin the diff after your done... i used crazy glue... love it... world of difference in climbing) hot-glue (same concept as the jbweld, and crazy glue, not permanent, you can remove it later) hope that helps... -james | |

That tranny should (lose the Hydra Drive) work if you can fit it is that chassis. Truck looks good. Order a 1/10 scale body for it! |
