I hope this means the T6D is around the corner.

Gas truck was fun, but babies make RC budget REALLY small.... Actually non-existent.... Gotta get funds the old fashioned way... Gas truck sure was fun back in the day but I am too old, fat, and don't want to melt in the summer heat when nitro is ran... Adulting sucks!

Anyone know if I can put a Durango 15mm hex on this truck to use all the Durango 15mm wheels and tires that I already have? I'm ditching my DEST210 and going for a T5m. I'm looking at getting the Exotek locking 15mm hexes. I guess as long as the axle diameter is close it will work...

Guys is there any huge modifications in order to run the standup b6d tranny? Really the only reason for the change is so I can run the new exotek slipper shaft and eliminator, plus I have an extra case and cut gears from my stock buggy. I am assuming if the change happens can I cant run the t5m ball diff? Just strictly use the B6d ball diff? Truck is working great! This weekend for the Castle Creations offroad Jam I finished 3rd. Love this thing

My truck has the 3 gear b5m tranny in it with cut gears, aluminum shaft, and slipper eliminator including the mip pucks. I was just wandering if the b6d standup 3 gear tranny fit because I have some spare cases including cut gears and I have a the brand new exotek shaft and slipper eliminator coming that will lighten it for 17.5 st racing. just wanting to update the truck for cool factor I guess.

Honestly have ran then for probably 15-20 club races now and 2 big shows! I check them after every club day to make sure they aren't wearing and I always use a little light grease on them. I have that tranny so light right now lol I did notice a huge difference in acceleration and in air control once I lightened it because the motor can spool up quicker or vise versa.

I run the cut gears from Speedy's and have since I built the truck. I've run it a couple of times with a 13.5 and that didn't hurt them although it was outdoors. The XFactory idler shaft is really nice and has a great fit. At times I run Speedy's slipper eliminator, I switch back and forth with the triad slipper, and land on throttle all the time. I don't run pucks. The gears to me look brand new.

Okay guys. So I built my t5m last week and took it on its first run today. I had 3 thrust bolts break in my diff. I hand tightened them till I felt the spring compressing all the way then backed off 1/8th of a turn. After that I adjusted the slipper to where the front wheels were lifting off the ground a tad bit. (Slipper was nearly locked) I've had some better luck running the slipper super loose but I don't have the power I had before. I'm running an 8.0 reedy motor. Anyone else had this problem??
