well as far as i can tell from my use and abuse the tranny holds up very well no wear at all on the gears and i even had my pinion gear set out to far and the grub screw was hitting the gear barely even damaged the edge of the teeth , my looking at the axial trans has nothing to do with the durability of the creeper tans just with size and weight , if i do end up using the axial trans in my creeper then the creeper trans will be residing in my scaler scx-10 , and i will have to make upgrades to the axial trans because the outputs are not steel but aluminum and they will shear off under a hard load .

Hey Viper, I have a creeper as well but haven't got it together yet. I picked up a sportsman chassis from Matt and am not sure what route I am going with. I have kicked around using the creeper axles with a axial tranny and his chassis, or I may use axial axles. I like the idea of being able to overdrive the front axle with the axials. Problem is I want it all, a scaler, tcc rig and a sportman rig. Just not enough money to go around. I don't think we have met yet, but I will be around as soon as the weather gets better and we start having comps again. I quit for awhile after my Dad passed away, and I am ready to get back to it again.  I think I am going to wait to put my creeper together till rc4wd put the xvd's out again. Keep us updated on you build, I will keep watching. Randy |

I do know most of the KCRC guys, I crawled with them and knew some from racing rc. I have had rc's for 10+ years, raced at most of the tracks in the area. When I got out of crawling about a year and half ago, I was running neck and neck for first in points with Josh or Matt, can't remember who for sure. I also would like to do some rc pulling, just can't find anyone around here with a good sled. I know Larry Supenbach has a old sled, but I don't think know what kind of shape its in. Sorry for your loss as well! Randy Last edited by racerrandy; 01-02-2011 at 06:49 PM. | |

okay the new chassis is in and i ordered my xvd's tonight . now for the fun part getting the chassis to work with the creeper tranny if at all possible , if not then i will have to switch to an axial ( bad word ) tranny . also looking at modifying my wheels get rid of the pendulum and replace with steel ball bearings ( individual 5/8 " balls 8 or 9 per each front wheel less in rear ) . also ordering the better tranny mount/center skid and full set of avid revolution bearings . still need to get the funds together to get a high torque servo to replace the kinda weak one i have now . pics will be coming soon |
