NO.... the nitro tranns are not made to handle the tourqe of the brushless power and tourqe. I'm pretty sure I've said this before that the nitro trans won't hold up. See.. get a brushless trans save your self $$ and time bud... you can try the harden gears if you want but WELL.. they are still made for a nitro truck not a brushless truck especially a 2200kv motor.....

can you point me to a brushless trans for my setup.NO.... the nitro tranns are not made to handle the tourqe of the brushless power and tourqe.

And definitely don't use anything from active power sports.. if anything go Robinson racing for the gear kits

You have the 2.5 Tmaxx with the 3.3 Tmaxx grey tranns in it. Well you did rite??
hahaha yea. will the emaxx 3908 Transmission work?
Yes. But it won't fit in the 2.5 short chassis.. need the long-wheelbase chassis. Do you have the widemax kit on the 2.5?. I mean you could try to jam it in the 2.5 chassis. But I highly dougbt it will fit in. The 2.5 platform isn't the chassis to do the conversion.. you can get the long-wheelbase emaxx 3098 chassis for like 20-30$ off ebay. That the front and rear or your 2.5 will bolt up too
You did but that was after I had already placed the order.pretty sure I said this would happen
If he upgrades to the 3.3 chassis will he not also need the 3.3 diffs, driveshafts, and CVDs?
Well he will have to upgrade the diffs,and center shafts anyway. He said he did have the CVD's question is does he have the widemaxx kit? If so then should only need the diff and center shafts. He can even get the stock Tmaxx 3.3 shafts and axles. Those both will work.. the 2.5 isn't really the platform to do the conversion on. Because it's the smallest out of the Tmaxx's.
I was talking about the gears above
I thought you meant warning me about active power sports. Someone warned me about buying from them but I had already placed the order. Still fighting with that crap close to 4.5-5 months now.
No I do not have the wide maxx kit. I have all ram set up
Omg really dude that's horribly crazy. That should never happen. And your not the only one that has or haven problems with them. It's like they are basically a middle man. For buying RC parts. They should put up a disclaimer about that..
Ram set up?? You mean RPM?
Yes it has full rpm setup. Dam auto correct lol.Omg really dude that's horribly crazy. That should never happen. And your not the only one that has or haven problems with them. It's like they are basically a middle man. For buying RC parts. They should put up a disclaimer about that..
Ram set up?? You mean RPM?
Nice Full RPM set up ? as all the arms, bulks, towers, knuckles. Correct.. but you still have the 2.5 axles and shafts rite? Because with the brushless you will need the extended chassis. You can do it two ways. One with a emaxx long-wheelbase chassis. Or the Tmaxx 3.3 chassis. And the emaxx or revo brushless tranns. Which is the 3908 tranns. What diffs you running the 2.5?
i still have the 2.5 axles but they are steel and the diffs are 2.5. what the diffrent between the traxxas 2.5 chassis and the 3.3. They look the same to me!!
They are the 3.3 and the emaxx are longer
Yes full rpm set up. The front bumper will come soon.
In order to get the grey 3.3 tranny to fit I had to change out the output knuckle and shorten my center shafts out. The 2.5 knuckle going the output shaft of the 3.3 tranny. Is alot smaller.
Yeah because the drive train of the 2.5 is way smaller then the revo or maxx3.3
