really meant for a 10t, there was no reason for them to make the worlds arm mounts so they would work with the 2.65 case in a narrow worlds buggy chassis.
purely speculating on that.....................

good point, didn't think of that. still, the tranny is a tuff modd!

I had some really good results with the resto of rear wheels: I removed all scuffs and polished them.
I have to do the same with front wheels.(I try to use as few new parts as possible).

Hello, a little more work on it today.
Stealth tranny, universals, TRX-1 rear shocks (same overall lenght as 1.32 but shorter bodies and they are pressurized : no bubbles noise ).
