Default ECX Torment 4x4 pinion headache

I dont know why in the world ecx uses a mod 1 pinion thats mostly used on 1/8 ebuggies on a 10th scale truck. Ive looked everywhere and cannot find a mod 1 with a 3.175 mm shaft and as far as I can tell my only option is to use a reducer sleeve. anybody here found a mod 1 in 3.175mm??

No, but there's a reason there isn't a mod 1 gear with a 3.175MM shaft. It'll break.

I completely understand that,especially with todays insane brushless systems.I dont see why they didnt use the usual 32 pitch.Its not a big problem, just frustrating when i have around 30 pinions and not a single one will work without the use of a pinion sleeve, which ive never had to do before.thanks for the input bro
