Project: Savage Flux 5T

[Jahay]

I cannot wait to see this come to life...

The diffs look good but i am a little worried... I just dont thing that these vorza diffs will work too well if you house them in the plastic savage bulks. The flex of the bulks under 6s load with the torquey 1520 motor will cause you diff problems i think... Hence why the BP diffs were introduced.
BUT
These definitely would work very well if you use alloy bulks which allow no flex of the ring and pinion...

For example....

The old stock HD Ring and Pinion gears (before the BP gears came around) were being sold with the flux... but in the plastic bulks constantly failed... Teeth chipped, pinions broke, bla bla bla... BUT i put them in some ALLOY GH Bulks... and even with the extra torque... and my nose heavy DB-17 chassis that keeps the front down and puts the power down... the diffs always survived as they dont allow any flex and my diff probs are a thing of the past...

Actually i am not definitely considering trying this vorza diff mod in some alloy GH Bulks! I like the idea of running larger pinions!
So is this just a vorza ring gear on a savage alloy bulk and the stock SHD cup outputs?

Thanks bud!

There isnt a comparison with these or the "bulletproof" diff rings and the original Savage rings.

As an FYI, the Vorza has plastic bulks, not to mention almost every truggy has plastic bulks (not to mention most of the truggies and buggies have plastic diff cases); although granted most of the truggies/buggies were designed for nitro power. TBut then again I havent had issues with 5 or 6S on my RC8Te. So not really sure that alloy bulks are necessary but I guess well find out eventually.

What is pictured is a Vorza/D8/Ve8/LightningStadiumSport ring gear (HBC9010), attached to a standard Savage X diff with the XL/Flux SHD drive cups. It does require a 8x16 bearing on the ring gear instead of the 11x16 that the bulletproof ring gear uses.
