The Bowhouse Axial SCX10 III SVT 3-Gear Transmission Adapter lets you ditch the bulky, complex transmission, and take advantage of the bulletproof simplicity and reduced weight of the classic 3-gear "AX10" transmission. This small adapter allows you to drop in your favorite Axial AX10, or similar compatible transmission - plus, it allows compatibility with the Element Stealth X transmission, so you can overdrive to the front axle from the transmission! Improve your SCX10 III performance with a tried and true drivetrain that eliminates the hassle of parts and pieces you don't need.
NOTE: You will need to supply your own 3-gear transmission (AX10-compatible or Stealth X).
Installation notes:
- Remove front and rear driveshafts. Note that driveshaft lengths will change after the transmission conversion due to different location of output shafts. Final driveshaft lengths after conversion will depend on your wheelbase. If you are using stock Axial Wild Boar HD driveshafts and do not have spare male/female ends, we recommend purchasing AXI31114 so that you can adjust the length of your driveshafts as needed.
- Unplug dig and shift servos if applicable.
- If you are installing a Stealth X transmission, remove the battery tray located behind the skid or raise it to allow clearance for the rear driveshaft. If you remove the rear battery tray, you can use the stock battery tray on the slider or relocate the battery to the front of the chassis.
- Remove stock transmission from skid and save mounting screws.
- Mount 3-gear transmission to adapter using the included M3x8mm flat head screws.
- Mount transmission/adapter assembly to SCX10 III skid using stock transmission mounting screws.
- Install new driveshafts
Includes:
- (1) transmission adapter
- (4) 3x8mm flat head screws
