    G'day from Australia. I followed your advice for fixing the gearbox. However, instead of using 3 screws to fix the clutch and 2nd gear together, I just used a product called sikaflex 227. It's a body sealant that can glue plastic and metal. I applied it to all the parts on that one shaft, glued them solid.

      Got mine running after prolly about 15years…had to replace all the batteries, one way bearing and thoroughly clean the carb as it was gunked up pretty good and fuel would not flow. It was really tough to start but it did and once tuned im very happy to be enjoying it again…runs real mean🦾🦾🦾

    you are missing the other piece of the motor mount that acts like a torque arm to the rear bulkhead. will probably work more than fine. but might lead to a motor mount failure. cheap part, that will bolt right in with what you got. cool build. im on my third revo electric conversion.\

      I can't find an Integy motor mount ANYWHERE. Or the pinion gear and adaptor. Suggestions? I'm all about DIY. Just going out and buying an electric when you have the Nitro right there in front of you, takes all the fun out of it.

    That’s 3S Lipo? Hmm. I’m currently doing a conversion on my Revo 3.3, but what do you think? Should go 4S for 3S?
    But OK, I see where you said you started off with a 13 tooth pinion gear and eventually went up to a 15 tooth so did you change your Spur gear at all or whatever you did, what tooth spur are you using?

    • @rcbuster4171
      @rcbuster4171  Год назад +1

      Currently I am still running the stock spur off the transmission. If able I would definitely recommend 4s and it is a bit slower than before but by far more reliable

Not too sure yet if I’ll end up switching to metal drive shafts and axle shafts or not.

      I don’t know what the difference is between the nitro T max and the Revo 3.3 but what kind of problems where you having with your transmission? I’m currently in the long process of converting my 3.3 Revo to 4S Lipo and hopefully the only structural upgrades I would have to do is probably upgrade the front and rear differential ring and pinion gear to the machined steel versions and possibly upgrade the gears in my transmission to steel. I might even have to upgrade to steel drive shafts and axle shafts but I haven’t gotten that far yet.
