Hey Scouser (or anyone else who may be able to help). Quick question about your 2wd beach buggy. I have been picking up a bunch of Magnum parts off ebay and have almost everything to put together another truck. I like the progress you are making on yours and was thinking maybe a 2wd stadium truck, although I really like the bug bodies. What did you do about the 2 speed gearing? I have been checking over the diagrams of the CEN 2wd truck and it looks to have a slipper (FF058) setup in place where the output center joint cup (FF047) is on 4wd trucks. Is this slipper necessary or can I just use the joint cup without the center shaft? It also looks like the bevel gear shaft is also different on the 2wd to accomodate the slipper setup. What setup are you using on yours?

My plan right now is to just go with the 4wd setup minus the center shaft and front diff. Although I might pick up the stub axles for the front wheels so it does not look like a hack job. Any thoughts?
