Hey guys. Just wanted your opinions to see what the benefits are of a Stealth trans over the old 6 gear. Thanks!

Efficiency and power handling. It's better in every way- it's lighter, less rotating mass, a slipper, etc

Are you able to run the new style slippers (B4) on the old Stealths?

Yes you can.
The differential also works better, which improves the car's handling.

Appreciate the insight guys. I'm a bit of an RC10 newbie. I've been in the hobby a while and finally picked one up so I'm kinda getting the crash course.

The exposed diff on the 6 gear simply needs rebuilding FAR more than the internal on the stealth. The stealth diff also works better. The other stuff is just icing on the cake.

That makes sense. What kits was this a standard on?

Champs switched over after a few years, all team cars, all trucks, all DS's

Thanks again gomachv! You guys sure know your stuff on this board. It's refreshing lol.

have you seen gomachv post count? peace gomachv

its mostly worthless toilet humor, but once in a while something good comes out

got a ways to go to catch up to Scr8p! 15,813 and counting!

I was about to say that

i had a 6 year head start.

I don't have much to say with my measly post count

the stealth is better than the 6 gear in every way.

That's not true.
Diff rebuilds are much easier on the 6 gear.

Gomachv, I joined a month before you and have one-tenth of your posts.
