Ok, after just reading Jeroen's email from ttech. This somewhat leaves me disappointed in such a way that there is very little support (if any) for the old predator transmission, unless you want to fork out £130-£150 which leaves a bitter taste in the mouth. And so this really leaves me and everyone else who would like better gears on the old predator to turn to Dave G who i have just spoken to and would consider making some small batch of conversion gears + other bits for £70?
Considering the work involved would take one whole day and including materials, i would be more than happy to pay for 70 for something you can just shove into the box and leave for a good season (at least that).
So lets see any hands up for the TC3 conversion...The more people the better it would be for dave in the long run and for us all....

I asked Dave the same thing when I started this forum, and at the time he was too busy on other things at the time. The conversion though is not that difficult, you just need to take your time...... no, I'm not doing any!

guys, read my other post, Elvo, (belgian 2wd champion) halpen me with it and had an idea but i still need to try it.
also...
the guy who I bought the pred from told me that you can also just change the bevel gea and inner bearing, not the whole diff !!! and then just make pinion adapters and a other inner bushing.
just try guys, I'm gonna try with Tamiya EVO III gears !
