yea sell it to a rc10 collector and buy a losi, maybe a jrx2 ... then you will wreck the trans or another part will fail..when you realize you cant get that broken part, throw gas on the car and light it on fire ... an old losi makes a great bonfire try running full bearings in the 6gear and a motor thats a little slower
What year did AE use the black idler gear for the 1st generation grarbox? I know the first kits came out with the white gear but I do not know when they stopped using it.. Anyone? :)

the black idler gears were on the rc10 graphite released in 1989. the tq10 didnt have the updated idlers when it was released. they must be good gears because mine still look new and my car is still being raced today
Hey I know most of you hate the 6 gear tranny but for those like me that have to run them because you dont have Big $$$ for the stealths that are going for crazy prices on ebay (saw one yesterday end for 65$USD shipped :roll: )...I have some good...

WOW lots of info on the 6 gear!
Funny, one of my smoothest (although least efficient) 6 gears is fully bushed. I added bearings to the drive gears and later removed them. I didn't replace the felt seals and retainers as this rig stays on the road....
Just rebuilt my 6 gear tranny. I have a 54 tooth spur gear (64 pitch I think it is). What size pinion should I use for a stock motor? Also does anyone know what that Tranny gear ratio is?

I have always used 1.85 when figuring gear ratios out.
Your gearing is going to depend on the track your racing at, or if bashing, how much speed/runtime/heat your want or are getting.
54 @ 32 pitch = 81 @ 48 pitch (most all modern offroad cars...
What Brushless could i run in my rc10t without the slipper melting?
I've got an ez run 8.5t or the RTR brushless out of my B4.1 just dont want anything bad to happen!
On the hunt for parts to do the topshaft conversion so i wont have this problem...

Was just thinking about asking the same question, the gearbox is fitted with the b4 slipper and topshaft gonna try my b4.1 stock brushless in it first then try the 8.5 ezrun. i have a feeling she will fly!
just wondering what you guys think. Was approached with a nice offer on a 6.5t brushless + esc + lipos. Car is geared for a 12t brushed motor. Would a 6.5t just kill the transmission? Price asked for the lot is about what I'd have to pay for an esc...

looking good, I was thinking about blue for mine or maybe some old school colours for the retro look. i took it to the races on sat but they were racing on carpet and my tyres where no hope lol sliding every where. good for drifting the corners lol....
I'm rebuilding an old 6 gear and want to put bearings throughout. Is there a top tip for removing the pressed on gears so I can replace the bushing behind the spur gear with a bearing. I want to do it without damaging anything
Thanks

remove the teflon bushing out of the dif. pinion. suport the back side of the dif. pinion . Use the correct size punch to gently tap the dif. tube out of the pinion. The pinion to dif. tube is a tapered joint and shouldnt take much to seperate. You...
Can anyone give me an approximate gear ratio for an RC10T with a 6 gear tranny and a novak brushless? I am not sure what I am running now but my 6 cell battery is getting hot on every run, hot enough to melt the outer cover off. I appreciate any...
Last post
The battery is brand new. 5300mah I believe. The 6 gear turns smoothly.
there hasn't been any development on nimh for ages now. A 5.5 is a seriously hairy mill that pulls A LOT of amps... what I'm saying is that the technology of leisure packs...
