What about this for a tranny?

they half shafts were always easy to mess up. I'm not sure it they would hold up to the abuse of larger tires and rock crawl'n.
 
That first trans you showed is out of a 20 year old tamiya kit (the brat, blackfoot,etc), it is a big trans and very hard to find parts for. Stick to something that is still being made, you will appreciate it when you shell a gear :mrgreen:
 
Stealth tranny's have been used. I hear they are a very strong tranny with the hardened inner gears.

Losi XXX tranny's can have sliders. I am still trying to find my instruction manual to get the part numbers.
 
im using alosi trans and i used tmaxx slidders you just have to drill out the yoke to fit the cup in the yoke and drill the cup to screw in the pin

which tranny did you use? or are they all the same?
hows the performance of it?
are you using sliders? if so how did you put them on?
 
i used the b4 tranny. i used a axle from a maxx, and the part for the roll pin goes into the tranny and drill a hole the all of it. it wasnt easy because of it being made of harded steal. but it works great.
 
I used a stealth tranny in Fungus ( http://www.rcpics.net/img/61865 ). I have another rig with a pede in it aswell. In all honesty I like the stealth better. I hollowed out some traxxas yokes and drilled some holes for pin mounting ( http://www.rcpics.net/img/61632 ) and the thing works great (I'm not down with searching for dogbones.) The whole thing is half the weight of the pede and the gears hold up amazingly. I'm running a 15/87 gearing ( great wheels speed and perfect torque with a 55t of course.) Hope thats in any way helpful.

What exactly did you do to the pede yokes to get them to fit? I am not following you.

And How did you lock the inner diff in the b4 trans?
 
b3 tranny locked down tight with jbweld, just clean the diff and smear in a liberal amount of jbweld .

along the line of the b3 or b4 trans, i got a couple of duratrax evader bx transmisions and they look similar the the b's. i was wonderin if it would be close enough to do the same trick too with the yokes??
