Need some help

[muddybuddy]

Well, I finally chewed up my spur gear. I was wondering if going to a 32p is the best option as I plan on upgrading to brushless soon, and what brand of pinion gears (Besides Robinson) are best for an open case?

Also, the upper shock screws are coming out in both the front and rear. I have RPM front/rear shock towers, and have gone as far as to use superglue to keep the screws from coming out. Anyone have a suggestion?

You can use e-maxx pinions with the m0.8 jato gears.
The shock screws come out for me too.. get some long screws, stick the shock spacers on them (they're part of the plastic tree.. half is thick, half is thinner, thinner part fits into the shock cap) screw them all the way through, and stick a lock nut or nut with loctite on the other side.. they won't ever come out by themselves again.

32P is a great option. I converted all my traxxas stuff to 32P about 2 years ago and haven't had to replace anything since.

The Jato 58T spur is the one you want then take you pick of 32P pinions. I personally like Robinson racing but any 32P will work as long as it has the correct bore for the motor shaft.

Im in the process of going 32p also. Im buying jato spurs in 54, 56 and 58 and im buying emaxx pinions from RRP in 9,10,11 and 12. If I run 12/56 ill get the same ratio as I currently run in my pede, and if I run 10/56 I get the same ratio as I run in my slash MT. But I want the others as options if I ever change tires, run in different conditions or want to do some even larger tires. I have SO many 48p spurs and pinions with so many combos availiable I want to build up my 32p setup the same way.
