Hmm.. Do you think it will work???

Hi

lets get to the point... I was thinkin' about building a 6x6 maxx
but not how you think see if I build this it will be 6 wheel drive!!!
how will I do it???? I will get a front end + 2 full rearend assemblys off Ebay (for 2.5 of course) then I will get a .21 conversion+ .21 engine (what is a good inexpensive .21??) then I will get a tranny off Ebay and whatever else I need as I go along
any way I will get two full sets of 2.5 drive shafts... I will start by putting the tranny and front end+ one rearend assembly on chassis putting front end where the rear end should be (so I don't have to worry about the engine + spur gear gettin in my way) then I will figure out how to hook the 2nd rear assembly to 1st rear assemby's bulkheads... then I will use a belt + pulley system to connect another out put yoke to the top of tranny case... then I will rig the extra drive shafts to get through the shock tower( will ride on ball bearing fixed in the shock tower)
finally to the second rear diff and then I will have some hardcore 6x6 .21 powered t-maxx action!!! hey maybe they'll even feature it in RCCA or RC Nitro

well here's the dia gram of drive sytem setup tell me what you think

 

[Maxxcrazy88]

actually Mike that's where I got the Idea from-xmas-

 

[Maxxcrazy88]

a more user friendly version tell me which one you like better-xmas-

actually this way I can take it in and out of 6 wheel drive by removing a pin in a steel rod that will hold the diff in gear..
you know how it works there has to be enough pressure to keep the diff from spinning

P.S. We will have to flip the second rear diff to do this

I see what you ment about rough sketch but that thing will haulllllllllll some @$$

 

[Maxxcrazy88]

yep but mostly climbing+ just bashin' unless you want to go top speed -xmas-
and you can disengage 6 wheel to 4 wheel drive by removing a pin-xmas-

I like the looks of that E-maxx. But it would be cool to make a T-maxx like that, only advantage is the power. If i where to do something like that, i would make an altenator and keep the battary at a full charge while the engine is running.
