Default RE: The Evader Coalition ~ T.E.C. Part 2.

So what do you mean, exactly about "grafting" a B4 tranny onto the vader? I've read Lug's description of the project, but since Inever saw pictures, Icould never really visualise the details. The B4 doesnt use a gear diff, but a ball dif, right? There was something about Lug's description of the diff adjustment that put me off the idea of doing it myself.

I have had very little issues with my tranny lately, even running a 5600kv SW, until Ichanged from Dirt Hawg IIs to Gladiators. Hoo boy! Did the Glads make the car controlable again! But it wasn't long before I stripped a gear INSIDE the diff! Ifixed that, but Imust;ve had the slipper too tight and I stripped the diff gear. Itoo would like to try the new metal-gear diff.

The Gladiators are a superior tire for the vader if yer running in dirt and running fast. The Dirt Hawgs balooned-up too much and were too soft. The Glads are stiffer in the sidewalls and tread and don't balloon up like dragster slicks.
