Cool setup Wally! I would think in these applications a belt, with its shock handling capacity would be a better fit and would help minimize drivetrain parts snapping during hard landings etc.
I agree. Plus, the gears that they replace are very, very heavy. So, it reduces rotating mass. And will up the gear ratio from 1 to 1.7 to 1 to 1.3. Higher top speed and less friction. Plus, using the smaller tires reduces more rotating mass. Stock monster truck tires are about 4 pounds a piece. Thanks for watching buddy... God bless
They don't anymore. I had a friend help me modify the pullys to fit. Waiting on belts to arrive in the mail. I'm crossing my fingers one fits. If not, I'll have to order more belt sizes. Trial and error. Been 2 months ordering pullys from China until I got ones that would fit.

That's awesome I didn't know they made a belt dive. Badass

I'll take one if you do !!
I will bring this up in part 2. I'll explain it then. Ty for your interest..I will try.
So you going to sell these ?
I wish I could. But getting the pullys machined and getting the parts is not easy. I'm not a machinist. If I can find a way to produce kits, I will.
