Alrighty which one should I go with? 1. The Traxxas magnum 272R (Drag Slash) transmission 2. Proline pro series HD transmission (32 pitch gears) or 3. Get a transmission case and all of the gears separate. I saved the diff and idler gear from my old rustler transmission so if I go with the Hot racing gear case or the RPM one I would just need the input shaft. What I do with my rustler and slash is basically all of the above here: Speed runs, street bashing, low jumps, running on my new LHS clay track. With the drag slash transmission it is a sealed and tune able diff so I can use different weight oils and a aluminum motor plate. (customizable colors too) With the proline transmission I think it is like the stock planetary diff but just with 32 pitch gears.
