u are right but mine is more for drag racing and it works better with the rear wheel but when i do want to go offroad and big jumps i just put the driveshafts back in.

It depends what 18tz you are trying to installl. The link provided is the install for the tz-tx if your using the tz- p there are different mods needed because the cranks are different between the two motors. If your trying to install the P version let me know and I'll get you the info you need. If not follow the link's instructions and you'll be lovin the TZ soon enough.
