I hope it turns out they way you like.

Thank you very much. I do too.




This guy seems promising.

Ya thats why Im having him make me one to. :yes:

Good luck with yours too. They should both be well made.



Any other comments/questions?

so you aren't using a pinion then and hooking the motor direct to the shaft?

Yep, two shafts from the motor directly to the front and rear diffs. Should be sweet.

Its gonna have absolute raw power.

Thats what I'm lookin for! lol


Wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for you Takedown, Thanks.

I try sometimes.:lol:

Hi,
your project is very intresting.
Just i don't understand how you can put diff cups on both side of this motor ?!??!
Output shaft is on one side only.....

There is a way to get the shaft to come out on both sides. You need to take the motor apart and slide the shaft down, you also need to make a new flatened space on the shaft for the grub screw to grip onto. You can also use a prop adapter, but I will not be doing it that way.



You can ask Takedown for more info on that procedure.

Thanks,
it's clear.

I just ordered the motor and a pair of rcm 8mm couplers. I am also still waiting for the custom mount. I might have everything by late next week.



I will be sure to post pics then. Any other comments?

I received my motor and rcm couplers (Very impressed with the quality of both pieces), still awaiting the mount. Here are some pics.

(The motor on the left is the ammo motor I was using before this whole project.)

Please let me know what you think.:yes:

Now that I did the shaft mod I can mount a coupler on both sides of the motor. Let me know what you think.;)

Looks good, have you fabbed up a motor mount yet?

I am having a friend machine it out of aluminum. I should have it late this week into next week.



Thank you for the comments

Good to hear, can't wait to see it mounted!

I think you have a good plan. Good luck with the rest of the build!

That motor looks rather neat with the custom yolks- potent...

The yokes are extremely well built/machined. Now I know why there $13 a peice. I plan to order (4) of them here soon because the motor Im getting has 8mm shafts on both ends and my bevels are both 8mm. $50 for yokes. Never would of thought I would be spending that much for something so minor. lol

THey are very well made. I feel safe with them, especially since they are hardened steel.

How this project coming along??

Slowly but surely... He's still waiting for his custom mount to arrive like me.

Sorry for not replying, just got back from vacation, California.:intello: Once I get the mount I will size everything up and get some pics for sure.

Hey did you enjoy it? When I went to tell you the truth I enjoyed colorado much more. I loved the beaches though.

Hey pedebeater it looks reall go so far!

man youve been waiting on that mount for almost two months! im getting anxious i want toi see pics

Me to... The guy is taking his good ole time on my mount to.

He might have it done, and if not real soon. I promise as soon as I get that mount I will get some great pics and vids. This will turn out really nice.

Hey PB could u get me the mounting hole dimensions??? im trying to have a mount machined for my raze

any mount yet? wondering how it turned out?

ufortunatly I am still waiting for the mount. I am trying to find something to make a temporary mount with. I will be sure to let you know.

Hey PB i just made one out of angle aluminum (2x2x 1/8th)... it works great with no flex at all

Just wondering since i have the same motor as you, how in the world did u get the stupid cclip off the front of the shaft???

geez that guy must have died! i would go somewhere else with my business lol

He's really getting on my nerves right now... Getting it doen little by little.

telling you guys... just get some 2in aluminum angle

TakeDown got us some 1/4in pleziglass that we are making some temporary mounts with. He saved the day again.

just get aluminum, he even told me that plexiglass or poly carb wouldnt work

Depends on the design, plexiglass that thick should be ok.
