Both work well, both have trade-offs.

22-4 is an update version of the XX-4 for all intents and purposes but they used modern materials to make it much stronger and have been tweaking on that incredible design platform. I could see a spec version before a 3.0 but I don't know. 13.5 4wd buggy is growing all the time.

But I don't think the whole 4WD buggy market is big enough to support a mod and spec version. So maybe just some option parts.
Just a bunch of speculation.

I think the 22-4 is a great platform! It would be great to see some weight savings for 13.5 and alterations to improve ease of maintenance, but overall I feel it is a solid car.

Personally, I would not risk it and replace them. I have made the mistake of having a diff leak and not swapping the belt. The result was a belt snapping, and more work later.

Hi guys I'm just starting off and I think I made a big mistake buying a tlr 22 4 2.0 because I don't know what I'm doing or how to fix and they say this car is not for beginners lol but I love my tlr eight 3.0 and wanted all tlr cars!!! K I bought a 16,17,18 pinion and have the stock spur(84) and I bought a 78, 76 spur gear I plan to run a Tekin 5.5 or a Orion 6. 5 or a Hobbywing 6.5 did I waste my money 💵 on those spur gears??? And the 16 pinion??? Please have mercy on me I've only been in the hobby for 5 months and my friend works on my cars all the time but I want to learn for my self thanks either pm or leave a message here and maybe some other things I need to know I read most of the thread but can't retain alot cause of my coma in April!!!

You may want to do some research and what the other 4wd offroad cars were around when the xx4 "Belt" system hit the track. Or when the prototype Durango>BJ4>B44>B64 started and how much it hasn't changed.
Or even look in to how the xxx4 was the freest rolling of all the belt and shaft-drive cars at the time, and how the combo of the xxx4 powertrain with the xx4 suspension became the Xfactory X5.
There is a LOT of history in the 4wd Class too.
