If so do i need a special pinion??? Would i need a metal spur?? God i couldnt imagine a slash,my buggy is stupid fast on 4s,,thanks for the help,,ill try to work on it tonight,

Should bolt right up to the motor plate, you'll need a 5mm bore mod.8/32 pitch pinion of course.
Gear accordingly;

FLM has 4X4 specific CVD's availible now. Slash 2x4 cvd's can be adapted if you grind the diff cups down to prevent binding when the suspension is fully extended. Traxxas hasn't announced the release date of theirs yet, that I've heard anyway.

WOW, a hundred beans for F&R, at least they have the lifetime garuantee.

I think I would go with the Tekno kit personally...

[ClodMaxx]

thanks squee.... didn't even know tekno made a kit until now. so far, the FLM kit is only for the rear.

i'll go with tekno's when they become available...although i doubt they'll be much cheaper than FLM's. man, all cvd's are probably the 3rd most expensive thing after a motor and esc.

No problem man...I've been thinkin on getting a Slash 4x4 myself, so I've been doing my homework.

I just checked out the Tekno kit. It steps up to 6mm stub axles and bigger bearings. Of course, this means the kit includes new hub carriers and steering blocks. I bet it is gonna be pricey. I think it will be worth the wait though.

[kazuaki]

Yeah, but just seeing what they have planned, this is on my must have list.

[ClodMaxx]

agreed. my old UE supermaxx had the same design - the thing was bulletproof. definitely over-engineered for strength. i'm just worried about the potential huge price tag due to the kit. i just got on the mailing list to be notified when they're in stock....we'll see.

[skellyo]

Ok, so I'm officially obsessed with these things. I have a 3rd that should be on the way shortly.

[ClodMaxx]

you didn't happen to snag the other one on RCG, did you? if so, you got deal of the year. i got 2nd place.
