thanx H... I went out to bash a bit and broke my car... shizzz!
That rear solid axle in the front messed me up bad!
Broke the graphite steering plate and the steering post and the adaptor. Glued it... went back to the oneway so not to stress the parts, but they broke anyway...
ordered just about $100 bucks worth of small parts to be prepared for the next bashing session.

Yeah its a big difference. Also, you MUST GET THE SHAFTS WITH THE LW 2SPEED. Only then will you notice a big increase. The .8module gears aka LW 2speed has a lower gear ratio. However, since its way lighter, it appears to not matter and provide as good or better acceleration and more top ene speed! Worthy upgrade indeed.

yeah for braking is awesome, but I lost some steering on the turns

This is normal. You can make some simple changes to get the steering back, give it another chance. Try the front gear diff vs the solid and in almost all cases the solid is better.

If I was to put the stock 2 speed tranny on a scale what's the difference in weight with the LW 2 speed?
