Are the 22 and kyosho rears the correct offset for the hex conversion?

hello again people, i had extra b4/t4 transmission case and parts with the stock steel top shaft from Associated. Against the recommendation of some other random forums i decided to put all steel gears in it.
I know this topic has been beaten to death on numerous forums some say its fine and others say why do you want to do that? Either way i decided to do it because thats how I am.
So, I put the Robinson sc10 steel idler in and the rc10gt2 steel ball differential in with some silicon nitride balls that i had previously ordered a bunch of last month. top shaft should be fine as it is also hardened steel i believe. Everything fit in the case and closed smooth as butter. proceeded to spin/rotate the outdrives and they were delicious as well.
Reattached tranny and put the slipper togeather as follows. ....robinson racing sc10 54t/32p steel spur and 13t/32p pinion (paper meshed the gears) and headed out
Proceeded out to the street and was happy with the performance until...
Everytime i really gave it some juice it would make a (baseball card in the spokes) sound if i punched it to hard. However accelerating at a moderate pace it sounded fantastic and smooth. I checked the mesh on the spur/pinion and it was cool. Havent opened the tranny yet but now i can hit the throttle and the outdrives do nothing. spur spins, pinion spins, outdrive....nothing, wheels nothing.
i am going to try tightening the outdrives (may have left them too loose) if that dosent work i will grease the shizzle out off all the tranny gear more than i already did.
If anyone has any help/input/comments/concerns/ or things to throw/yell at me i will gladly listen and dodge all heavy objects
later

I got home from work and it seems like Santa got here early!
So I soldered it up...
...and now I finally have a decent setup in my buggy. Team Associated Factory Team B4.1, Tekin RS, Tekin Redline 13.5, XP Digital 1313 servo, Futaba R603FF Receiver (3PM-X transmitter), Gens Ace 5000mah 40C batteries and AMB MyLaps transponder. Not too fancy, but it should get the job done better than the RTR electronics from my SC10.
Saturday morning I'll be headed to the track to tune it up before racing in the afternoon. I'm using an ESC profile downloaded from Tekin's website for an RS/13.5 in a buggy, so hopefully it will be a good baseline.

Now it runs like butter no noise or anything. If it were cracked would it be making that noise no matter what? Anyway The noise is gone and i inspected all the gears. So figure im good now. I do like the added weight in the rear as well
