Just ordered the parts for my Ascender, I presume the list on post #1 is the most updated? Just the servo to decide on I think.. Do I need a high torque metal geared servo or just a standard mini? Im unsure of the load that will be put on it as its just for shifting a shaft, whats the verdict for those that have tried it? Al... |

Sticky would be great. An updated pays list would be better. There's some stuff missing from the list and if someone doesn't take the time to read all the posts they'll end up missing hardware

| Re: How to convert Ascender trans to a Two Speed
So, Just completed the 2 speed tranny upgrade. I was wondering, has anyone done this upgrade while using GCM Racing's Combo kit? Meaning my tranny and motor are relocated to the front of the rig using the shock towers? I am assuming just fabbing a longer shift rod or something. Because, right now, the existing shift rod is pointing towards my front bumper. A long ways away from the GCM transfer case I installed. On GCM's site, it states that it has a cradle on their transfer case to install a mini servo for a 2-speed transmission.! Yay!! Do they show a pic of this being completed? LOL. Naw, of course now, Where's the fun in that? Hah.. Anyhow. I have a pic as to what I am dealing with. The red mark is the shift rod coming out of the tranny. The yellow is where this "convenient" spot is to add a mini servo for shifting. Hmm, wonder if I have enough room to install the mini servo right on the original spot on the transmission? Any ideas, thoughts , or shouts would be greatly appreciated. Thinking of contacting GCM Racing and seeing if they have any ideas as well. Thanks. |

I don't see why you couldn't just flip the rod in the trans and open the hole out that back side of the trans case. It should work fine that way, and my guess is that gcm is thinking a similar way, or a long rod running up along side. In my opinion flipping the shaft is the easier way Sent from my iPhone using Tapascrap |
