Running mod1 on Slash
 

How do you run Mod1 spurs in the Slash 4x4?

Will Revo spurs fit?

Use a Revo Spur gear with no gear cover.

Slash 4x4 uses 32P, If you know how to set the mesh then there should be no problem with stripped gears. E-Revos and E-Maxxs both come with the same 32P gears, I've had both and I've never stripped a spur gear. In fact the only spur gears I have ever stripped are the Mod1 nitro revo spurs when I ran a nitro revo. IMO the motor mount on the revos sucked cause every time I had a bad landing and flipped it stripped the spur gear cause the motor would move just enough to mess up the mesh. Running E-revos, E-maxxs, and my RC8T(this is Mod1) no matter how bad the crash, no stripped gears! Just learn to set your mesh and tighten down the motor properly and stick with the 32P which gives you more gearing options

Any way to run it with a gear cover? Is it the spurs diameter that causes the problem?

The gear cover has nothing to do with it. The spur will hit the chassis before it will hit the gear cover. I am running the absolute largest Mod1 spur that will fit without hacking up the chassis, which is a 44t. It is extremely close to hitting the chassis, as it is just a hair larger than the stock 54t 32p spur gear.

So why do you have to take the gear cover off?

You don't. I run a 44t Mod1 spur gear and still use the factory spur gear cover.
