the GRU is multiplying your torque... thats part of the problem.

Switch to some CVD's or Universals and that will likely help too.

I am running a small lift kit and some MIP CVD's from the 1990's and they are still holding up to competitions with a 2.5:1 GRU

you know what the mip's are for or where i could find cvd ??

Mine were for a Tamiya TA02. They are hard to find, not sure if they even make them anymore. E-bay is likely your best bet.

My other rig has universals from GPM and they are holding up good so far, but they have far fewer hours on them too.

If you are using a 4-1 gru I highly recommend using a stock motor like the 27t as the 55t along with the gru will break a lot more if you get stronger axles. In saying that I highly recommend the GPM steel universals as I have had mine now for quite a while and no issues yet.

yeah i was seeing if sum one had sum thing i could get from the l.h.s. but i will just get the gmp ones. i'm running the 55t motor cus the stock one didn't come with my used cc01. i will try a higher turn motor. thanks for the help guy
