Put 3S in it and you will break things, or at least if you drive like me you will. So, get some spare parts to keep the fun going. Totally different car with that power change.

if you have the metal diff gears, your all set!

btw nice name!

Current Xl-5 models come with metal gears int he tranny so you are set htere. One thing you will need to replace is the bushings in the bearing carriers. XL-5 models still have bushings and you will need bearings in very short order if you run brushless power thru the bushings. I would just replace the bushings with bearings from the get go.

but i got mine a couple years ago maybe like 2 and would it still have metal gears or do i need to buy new ones
