| Wheels, chassis, tranny... I AM CONFUSED
ok guys. so i thought i would buy a tlt for a crawler project for some extra fun. I bought my tlt (still sitting in the box), bought my moab XL tires, just won a matt francis tranny on ebay. So now I have a few more questions. 1. I like the cheyenne wheels. These are the narrow version, however, do you guys typically still make them narrower? If so, what is your overall width when done? 2 inches? 2. Will the tranny I have work in a SW2 chassis or will I have to do some modifications? If so, how much? 3. If I go with the cheyenne wheels, what are my options for adapters and wideners? I think these will work http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXJGR4&P=7 right? If these work, than I can get TTR maxx wideners right? I have done searching and reading on this stuff, but i think i am more confused now than when I started. I guess I just need someone to spell it out for me Thanks Matt |

1. XL's are WAY to big for TLT axles, you need 2.2 Moabs. 2.You should just have to lock it and drill mounting holes in the bottom plate. 3.Like I said, get some 2.2 Moabs and 2.2 wheels. Most people are using Traxxas and HPI wheels. |

Sorry boy, my bad. I do have the Moab 2.2" narrow tires. See what I mean, I do to much reading and I can't even type correctly Thanks for the info so far. Matt |
