THanks a lot Jay! How did you the Jato tranny to clear the rear suspension arm mounts? It seems to me they will be in the way? These

Hey I am mostly interested in how transmission went onto the chassis, whether it needed any special parts, or it was a straight bolt on. When doing a mod like this, you end up with a million of separate purchases, due to figuring it out as you keep doing it. I'd like to avoid that.

I use sidewinder fuel, some motors even after months of no use looked like new, with no ARO applied. Although I do put ARO if not using the RC for more than a week, but for some I fogot, and to my surprise they looked like new when pulled apart. Cmon man, we need the list.... :)

Funny you ask that, I did start it just yesterday. Fired right up, and ran absolutely amazing, all I did was just 1/4 turn adjustment on HSN. This is after almost 2 years of no use. It really does need that 2nd speed though.

Glad it helped!

Looks mean, I think bigger tyres would make it even better looking. Too tiny those ones. You can adjust the 2nd speed shift point, you are aware of this right? Right on top of the transmission, take off the rubber dust seal, then adjust as you like. Better yet, download Jato manual, and its all...

Can we have some more photos as well please? sides top, bottom.....etc? Also, if not too much trouble, a photo of your clutch assembly with the spur that we both are planning to use? Thanks!

Looks factory.... I will order my parts soon, and try to do a 2 speed nitro slash. Send us some vids of those speed runs. Would be nice if you could put together a final list of the parts you used, tips and tricks on some parts of the build that were challenging to do....etc. Thanks

Those holes in the rear bulk, you drilled yourself? The diff gears on Jato tranny are exposed at the bottom? Did you use any spacers in between the chassis and tranny? Sorry for the questions, I'd love to install 2 speed Jato trans on my Slash. And, rusty and slash are almost the same cars.

Did you bolt the tranny onto the chassis only? Is it also screwed into shock towers like on the Jato?

Amazing work mate! Thanks for your patience and sharing this great build with us. Something I always wanted but didn't have the courage to do. In the end, as you know, I got a Jato, and have just sold my Nitro Rustler yesterday. I kinda dont want your Rustler to be faster than my Jato.... :)
