All the bearings in the pic are the same 16mm OD, 8mm ID, 5mm wide. The alu cup is from novarcproducts.com. The TiNi gears were from sportwerks but losi have their own now.

Thanks alot. Any advantages of the sportwerks over the losi? Or are they similar in quality and durability?:whip:

Edit, just found out that the sportwerks and losi are pretty much the same... http://rc-monster.info/forum/showpos...6&postcount=36

Or, best option, buy a savage :mdr:

Don't know if there is any difference :neutral:

Pinkpanda: look at my edit:yipi: I think I´ve got it figured out:lol:

Freeze: :rofl: How many times a day do you think that popps up in my head?:lol:

I want to change, Muggydude seems to bee very happy with the change from Erbe to flux ( among with many others ) and it looks to me like you are happy....and.... I WANT ONE:whistle:

Yep!:party: I love my flux, and it's not even all that upgraded. Very durale and fun truck. 4s is awesome, and 6s is insane! Also a good winter vehicle becase the TVP design is super easy to waterproof.

Glad to hear that Muggy!

Tell me a short story, for how long did you have the revo? Any previous Rc cars?

Should I simply do it? Turn...From Traxxas to...Hpi?:surprised:

i have both a revo and a savage. there is just no comparison. the revo handles a little better, but i have to baby it a little in both power and bashing. the savage is a balls out, insanely tough truck that has no power limits due to the BP diffs. i've done at least 100 standing backflips with mine and no diff issues yet besides a screw backing out from user error.

"i've done at least 100 standing backflips with mine and no diff issues" That is some serious abuse:yipi:

I´m glad you shared, that was something I was looking for, not that someone have done 100 standing flips, but that someone is pushing the limits with good results:intello:

What do you think is the most common to break on the revo besides the whole drivetrain?

I have running revos since the first 2.5 came out I´m just wondering if the rest of you guys are breaking the same parts as me?:whistle:

I found out that if you have the following you got a good base:

Alu chassis ( the plastic one isn´t enough for me, keeps cracking in the most wierd ways..)

Alu rockers,

"thick" rodends all around,

Alu shock caps,

Alu shock retainers,

Alu skids front and rear, and something who ties this togheter like a sandwïch, or HR titanium fullskid or similar to prevent bulkhead snapping.

All the small "mounts" in the front that the servo saver sits on and similar in Alu.

Other driveshafts ( currently summit shafts )

Other diffs/cups/non plastic parts.

I have all this done among with a bunch of other small mods. So now I thought that when I had put so much job on it I could just beef up the last thing that keeps giving in, the stupid diffs, the summit shafts is holding up pretty good.

I have a special love for the revo platform and for Traxxas, it feels like I´m going to the devil if I turn on Traxxas and starts to run Hpi:diablo:

Is there no one who is rebuilding who can meassure the BP diffs as requested?:angel:

What measurement did you need exactly?

If I remember I might do it tonight since I'll probably work on a nitro (I know, I know sacrilege) Savage rebuild that BP diffs are going in (saves the need to keep different sets of spare parts for multiple Savages).

Used to be able to get both the 43T and 45T Sportwerks TiNi gears on Ebay for like $8-10. Now the 43T is up to $24, but the 45T is still $10. I was mad when I bought a few of the 43T, then went back to buy more because they were such a good deal, and saw how much the price went up.

Would be very kind if you could do it :).

So it looks like they are 5mm too wide.

I had the revo from about christmas to maybe august last year? It started out as a normal revo conversion with regular chassis and a 2650kv motor. I ran pretty much the whole time, upgrading as I went. It did handle good, and I actually hardly ever broke it! (1 a-arm and a steering knuckle). I mostly did little stuff ith it though, like going to the track and socker fields. i also went to the skatepark, but I had excellent control, so it almost always landed on it wheels on a curve. So no thrash it. I feared that if I did, it would break. It really was more of a racer. No on my savage, I go to the skatepark, and the jump the 10 foot tall fence! It is just a lot more "fun" truck, even on 4s. Standing backflips are sweet! More power than you need is definetely better than less power! Only thing I have broken so far is the center dogbone (snapped on a curb standing backflip) a turnbuckle (fixed with integuy rear carriers), and my crappy RPM wheels. Tht's it, after numerous thrashings. Love it! Very durable truck, a ton of fun, and the best part is: it cn handle the power! Now all I need is 6s...:diablo:
Check my build thread if you want to see all the upgrades on it. Most of them I believe are very important.

Thanks alot for meassureing the diff! 32.74mm VS 34.74mm, looks like 2mm difference:yes: I will make it fit. I´m wondering if the Bp ringgear have the same bolt pattern for the diffcup as the lst...? If that is so, then I could just use the Lst cup:whistle:

Muggydude:

Thanks for the writeup! I just keep hearing good things about the flux over and over again, I don´t think I have seen anyone who has been unpleased with it yet:yipi:

I have read your thread :smile:

Is there someone who can meassure the distance between the screws for the Lst cup and savy cup?
