changing the drive ratio in my front axle
 

hi, Iv'e heard a tip from a friend for a change that he's going to do on his competition scx10.
the tip is to make the front axle run a little bit faster and this way the front wheels pull the truck more than what the rear wheels push you so you gain more grip on the climbs.
my question is if I can buy new gears for the axle to change my drive ratio?

Yes just buy either axial over drive gears for the front or under drive gears for the rear. It does make a big difference. I had both in my jk but it was to much with the over drive and under drive. Especially in reverse. If you spend lots of time on the rocks then both might be good but for a trail rig I'd go with one or the other

If your working on a creeper venom dos'nt have over/under drive parts and the axial parts don't interchange with the creeper.

I was assuming he was working on an scx10. Interesting that venom doesn't make o/d u/d tho.

They don't even make a crawler anymore.

Consider this a stupid question from me but what in the h3ll makes you think a guy in the venom thread would be working on an SCX10?

Sorry my phone was acting up and I didn't even know I was in the creeper section.

if memory serves me, the Axial rings do fit the venom with some minor modification.
