I successfully did this upgrade to my set. I followed your instructions, but decided to add a little solder to the wires before I covered them with electrical tape.
I run the AFX power supply in the video for over a year and love it! You can find new/used AFX Tri Power Packs on eBay- ebay.us/3gORGr and sometimes on Amazon- amzn.to/3dDvnQH Use my purchased links above! I get a small commission from Amazon and/or eBay that helps support my channel!
From my experience, If you clean all the hair and carpet fibers from the worm gear etc, the truck will not even stay on the track if you got to those speeds. Even when they get hot, that shut down and work fine when they cool off.

thank you so much to post this video; it's vere usefull; I have a question: original power pack is 6.9 V output and the afx tri-power is 8/12/22.0 V as output. I think this voltage is to high. Could you help me?
I have the green dump that had logs (gone) and the red semi with the Navajo trailer set

2:01 "You can solder that in" :-) I can tell you that I've had mine taped only for months and moved the cord around etc and it's not lost connection.
Any data how much the truck motors can take? Thanks for a great channel!
Thats a great question to post on the forum! forums.tycous1trucking.com/
Do they both run good on the low speed I'm thinking about it

@MikeBiddle thank you
Anyone have any experience burning out truck motors running this power pack over time?
