I have been wanting to put this gear in for a long time, but there was going to be a couple of mods i was going to have to do first......
The first mod you will have to do is grind the part of the chassis that the spur gear meets, i used my trusty dremel with the grinding head in place.....i did'nt want to take too much off.....just grind away until the spur gear spins freely. After the gear spins freely you might want to put some CA glue to keep the cf from splitting, for faster drying i used my heat gun. Take a look at the pic. And if your using the swivel upperdeck you can put the small cf bar on top or just do what i did and grind some of the material off, once the clearence is solved CA that side so the cf wont split, use a heat gun for faster drying.
Thanks for the update, buddy. I just picked up a couple of these to try them out on the BL setup (5400 & 6800)
What size pinion are you running with these?

Im running a 16t pinion.......got to try it out man and the topend is nice, running a MM motor. Let me know when you do the mod, hope it turns out well for ya.
thats cool, but , Just a thought,why not get a smaller pinion and spur and get the same ratio with smaller gears??? it would save u weight and you wouldn't have to cut stuff .
and btw, that avatar is freakin HILARIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!

Well i just wanted to show the members here that you can use a 44t spur gear in a chassis....... People are going to tend to use what they have ya know.
This is especially useful on those long racedays... Once you somehow exhaust that "never-ending" supply of small spurs, you bring out the big guns.... XD

When you put the rear gear box in you dont see the canyon at all....lol....dont even know it's there at all. Now people will ask how did you get that spur in there.......as far as i know not a lot of people run the 44t.
