I'm a newbie also, but I'll have to say there is nothing out there I've seen to convert to a worm drive axle. Right now, as far as I know, worm axles are only being offered by Losi for the comp crawler.

and the losi micro
there is no kit available yet
but you would basically be buying whole new axles
so my guess is that if losi is working on 1/18 worm drive axles they will just come out with a whole new crawler

Most that I have seen is steel lockers, gears, ect.....:? No such luck on the worm gears.

Nope. Battery lasts a long time though!! :mrgreen: Just joking around!
If they came out with a wormdrive kit it would have to come with new axles and a new trans. With worm drive i don't think there is much reduction in the trans. All the reduction is in the axles and that is what makes them have so little torque twist and why they can MOA them. The comp crawler trans is close to 1:1 i would think and the MRC trans is around 30:1. So if you ran LCC axles with a MRC trans it would move so slow it would be useless. I think that is right, anyway?
