Revo center diff... - 10-27-2005, 09:03 AM

I've seen guys who've made a center diff for the Revo before, but now I hear that Traxxas is going to be releasing one! A center diff, the new rear arms, and an extended CF chassis and I think we have a truggy killer! Just gotta work on that brake bias thing...

Rocco, work with me! I'm grasping at straws as not to sell my Revo! LOL!! I've got an offer of $800 w/o radio/servos or starter box from a guy in Florida.

ya there comming out with a center diff. There gonna be using jato parts and revo parts to make the trans into a center diff. Everything is gonna fit inside the stock transmission and appear to be a stock truck. All you gotta do is take out the forward only kit and replace it with the new stuff. i hope this picture works

with the way the that diff is i would say you still have a 2 speed. All they seem to do was just put a differential on the FOC shaft so i would have to say yes you still have 2 speeds.

Hmm Bruce, have you finally decided to get a truggy? Why? I bought a Revo because you had one. You know all the little nuances of the vehicle. Some of it has rubbed of onto me. Actually, truth be told; I wish I was like you, j/k. Don't sell it yet!

Well, with this news I'm now leaning towards keeping the Revo. I just feel really bad for Rocco now.

This is made by Ray! I heard about this thing before but am shocked to find out it was Ray who made it! I'm hoping he'll call me about this.

Mich, Ray races with us! He's the guy in the wheelchair. He's totally cool! I agree, I want to check out the Traxxas version but I trust Ray.

I was pretty close on selling my revo also but now i would like to try that diff out. I think that and a BB would be SWEEET. Is it out yet? Why is one for sale on Ebay?
And (Satoch) whats with the new arms you mentioned?

Kev, I saw the new Traxxas arms in Dallas. They have been approved for release per Slayden. Watch the boards for updates.

As to why Ray has a center diff for sale on e-bay, I won't know until he calls me. I've seen them before by others.
