I purchased a used one for my Son in law last summer. I switched it over to a brushless setup. The previous owner hadn't cleaned the differentials and they were FULL of sand. The rear one locked up ,found it had exploded from the sand. He gave me the vehicle yesterday because he knew how badly I wanted a Summit. I will replace the front differential this season as well.
18:26 The instruction says "Diff carrier support "I" bar rounded edge down" and this is the large bar in the middle, not the side tabs. You placed the tabs right, but the "I" bar is upside down, thus not the correct gear mesh. I've made this mistake several times, which destroyed the spider gears over time... Until I saw the little arrow on the instruction, which points to the "I" bar edges and not the side tabs ;)
You just saved my diff ! I put new spider gears in and grinded the spider gears down to nuthing first run ! I almost put the I bar in upside down again but now its perfect 6s hobbywing max 6 it ripps no problem at all thank you agen I never noticed they were taking about the I beam I thought it was the thing on the end of spider gear I was going to buy e-revo differential and drive shafts and differential carrier it would have been 150 plus $ to do that and I would lose the looking differential! 😮
hey man, really cool vid set ... would appreciate if you shared the links on the description, eg explosion schematics (blueprints) of the summit would be nice thnks
Hi, i need troubleshooting, summit front left tyre shakes up and down left right when in low throttle, but became stable as i give it full or more than 50% throttle
The Traxxss Summit is incredible.

Thanks for the video!

I've never noticed that before!! Thank you!! I've blown up the diffs twice now, and I bet incorrect mesh is the reason.

Sick rig!
Thanks, it's a beast! Can't wait to get it on the trail with your Scout.
