Good, cheap, strong 4wd?
 

Im thinking about getting a 4wd mainly for times like worksop and regionals, etc


But it can't be any old flimsy thing (no schuey's then :p ), people who know me, know that I give my cars death :D

So I need something cheap to buy and run, which is going to be strong and still competitive enough.


Was thinking about the new LRP Blast as it has geared diffs, but don't know what the spares will be like or track side-support

Associated B44?

Pretty solid, spares easy to get!

Weren't Lloyd flogging a Durga for £60ish? Built like brick s**thouses once you've put a proper rear diff in.

i was gonna say durga a true tank of a thing

That was my old durga! Theres a reason I don't own it anymore! I bought more diff gears than tyres for it!

Would durago diffs fit in a ZX5? :drool:

Hpi cyber10 at least it takes stick pack lipo's...:thumbsup:

Actually, scrap the durango diff idea! Its almost £100 for 2 diffs and 2 idlers!

Does any other 1/10th scale car use geared diffs? (on or off road)

I dont think you could go far wrong with your idea on the LRP buggy..

The new lrp buggy does :)

EDIT: Dam Beaten to it!

Most nitro touring cars are geared diffs (i think),
Anyway what do you want a touring car for.....are you on the change...:woot:

b44
 

i agree with the first post!!! the b44 is imence!!! :thumbsup:

Just stick an elastic band round your rear driveshafts to your front wheels on your b4. Proper Shambles:p

And if you let Chris put your rubber band on you can have the front wheels going in the wrong direction to the rear aswell.....:woot:

Hpi Pro-D and I belive also Brama - but that one will be sh*tty.

Pat, thinking of a little project, as you know I hate ball diffs, more so when theres 2 of them! So may put some geared diff's in what ever car

pat is correct, serpent also did a gear diff for the s400 tho like rocking horse poo

there all nearly belt drive, Glyn ward build a hong nor 10th buggy with gear diffs, was a 12th/10th nitro car prior the conversion

Just bought 2 diffs :woot: Hopefully they will fit what ever car I buy!!

Im thinking B44 cos Rob J has one and it keeps it all Associated, but Im also thinking Lazer ZX5 cos they take stick packs

Oh I can't wait to see this. Get a B44, I have had mine since they came out and I don't think I have had to rebuild the diffs since it was built. God bless sealed drive trains. B44 is a good solid car with a few mods I mean look at the mess Rob James made to yours when you had a head on with it, Robs only broke a ball cup.
