RC10 4WD Questions

Post by Carknowledge101 »

I was wondering if it was possible to build a rc10 4WD by using diffs from like a Revo or another car. I don’t care if it has a belt or driveshafts but has anyone experimented with this?

There are a lot of ways you could do it. But in the end, what do you end up with? Essentially another car with an rc10 chassis maybe? Even though the mip 4wd drive conversion was never really great performance, and highly sought after, I think that was the really cool part about it. It was the minimum parts to make an rc10 drive with 4 wheels. The gents here on this forum did a beautiful job making a more modern interpretation which I think captures that essence.

there was one floating around that someone completed using a 2nd stealth Tranny that was cut down at the front, with a front shock tower by gomachv

I did see the one with the B44 swap. I looked for B44 Diffs but I couldn't find any. What i'm trying to do is combine the 4wd power of a Optima with the simplicity and look of an RC10. I dont know if this will even be a build. I'm just seeing what people have come up with.
