I modified an old gold pan to use with one of the Injora transmissions. For a basher, I don't have any complaints.

good to know . a bunch of the members on the fb page are screaming "no diff" like its a big deal lol . it will steer like crap but as you said its a basher for my son he is 7 and could care less lol. people forget they used to run old new bright toys as a kid that had 0 suspension, and a straight drive axle lol and loved every second

-------------------------------------------------------

made some progress on the front end . my fingers hurs from installing 3 cars worth of hinge pins over tha past week lol , have a groove in my nail lol
looks like i can get at least 3 or 4 more set out of my hinge pin stash

saw your videos on fb. This is AWESOME! how much of the car is printed vs parts you have or are buying? Are the print files something you created or freely available online? i searched for just a min but didnt find any type of print file but i know nothing of 3d printing.

The video of the scx10 transmission. it looked like it was a success. Im interested to hear how the 2wdtraxxas transmission works now.

thanks
i did not create the files but i did modify the chassis it was wrong in the rear and needed material removed to fit the rear arms(even stock)
here is my thingiverse with some revisions of the chassis , and a few supporting parts . https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6532318

this is the one I'm doing now

it is using a rc10gt transmission with a electric conversion kit and i drilled the top so i could install the top shaft the opposite direction.

when i went and bought paint today i also got the rest of the parts i needed to build out a trx 2wd gearbox soo once i finish the gt ,im ready to go for a trx lol
we also got our bodies painted up today

The next time you disassemble the transmission, could you please measure the dimensions of the "no- diff " gear?

- width
- diameter
- bearing size
- tooth count

Does anyone know what pitch Axial uses?

Perhaps a fitting diff can be found from a different brand.

Otherwise great work.

That purple / orange setup is screaming for a Joker themed body

someone chimed in on the fakebook page and said you can use the tamiya hbx diff but you have replace the bearings (they have standard dogbone style outdrives). this should be th e gear set for the scx10 gearbox looking at this one it has screws to remove the outdrives im sure its could retrofit a ball diff setup

Are they referring to the TL-01?
Googling "tamiya hbx diff" yields many posts for an HBX clone of the Tamiya TL-01.

They look very good, have you ran then yet? what do they weigh in at?

ran the snot out of them the day before easter . the only breakage was the printed front plate , on one and only after a full head on crash with a slash
the scx10 based one really ran great

Hmmm.

Well, looking at the manuals, the BBX and Axial diff gears have the same tooth count and both appear to be 48dp. According to the Tamiya experts on TC, the BBX uses a TA06 diff so if it fits the Injora trans, this could offer a gear diff option as well.

https://www.amazon.com/TA06-Steel-Gear-Diff-Unit/dp/B00AZFZJ1U

More research is needed. I have a BBX, Axial and Injora transmissions but I'd rather not tear into them at the moment.

Imagine a TA06 diff dropping into an AE Stealth case -- how crazy would that be!

EDIT: The Stealth diff gear is much smaller tooth count so no chance replacing it with a TA06. Anyway, curiosity got the best of me and I've opened the BBX and Injora cases and discovered the diffs are interchangeable after swapping out the bearings; Injora requires 16x8 while BBX uses 15x10 (easily sourced). But there's a problem. With bearings, the BBX diff assembly is maybe a couple mm's wider than the Injora so it won't allow the case halves to close.

got the rear transmission brace sorted out for using a rc10gt gearbox

That's awesome, well done.
Me thinks you might need a wheelie bar.
