Converting 6 gear trans 32p to 48p, internals need changing?

Post by **burnsmonkey** » Wed Jan 27, 2010 10:00 am

So I have been reading a lot of tips on how to upgrade the 6 gear trans and I noticed if I want to run 48p spur gear that people change out the internals to work with a 48p setup. Is changing the internals necessary or is it to help altogether run smoother? Thanks

You can run 48p or 64p spur and leave the internals as they are with no issues.

Spur gears are external and have no effect on the internal performance of the gearbox, however, there were 48p internal gear upgrades for the 6-gears as well as 64p upgrades for the Stealth. Those replace the internal idler gears with finer pitch gears for smoother running.

I'm running 48p spur on my six gears with no problem at all.
