What's the spec's on that motor?

Re: PFB Tri-Axle King Hauler
 

I've put a fair amount of stress on these ring and pinions before. I know they'll fail eventually though.

Specs on pullers:
You can't find a more powerful brushed motor in this class. You get insane wheelspeed, more torque than any 540 motor, and the finest slow speed control. All in one motor. 7 slot armature allows for better throttle resolution with a high motor speed.

Recommended lipo battery-

6t- 2s only. 40a continuous
7t- 2 to 3s (3s may result in overheating). 45a continous 11.1v use, 35a continuous 7.4v use
10t- 2 to 3s. 40 amps continuous 11.1v use, 30 amps continuous for 7.4v.
14t- 3 to 6s. 35a continuous 22.2v use, 25a continuous 3s use

Slightly longer than a standard 540 motor. Uses standard 1/8" pinions, and 25mm motor mount spacing- bolts up like a normal 540 motor. **Some stock uses 4-40 mounting screws that are included**

Super Strong cobalt magnets
7 slot armature
6.9 ounces, 200g
2.5" long, 1.35" diameter
5-10 volts
160*F max

6t- TBD
7t - 2800 rpm/volt
10t- 1800 rpm/volt
14t- TBD

You should just go ahead and give this truck a powered front axle. I think you'll like having it, and it would raise the front bumper up a touch. You might not even need to mill it. If it's worth building, it's worth over building!

The winch isn't a required bit. The guys up north use winches to pull the trailer up the ramps to save the driveline in less than ideal conditions.

Got some work done on the rig tonight.

Here's the mount I came up with for the R2HD trans:

It's only mounted to one side so I thought I was going to have to brace it to the other side frame but it feels pretty solid.

Re: PFB Tri-Axle King Hauler
 

Thats a pretty nice trans mount! Looks beefy. I'd build another for the otherside, if it was mine, but sometimes when you are making parts like this, by hand, you're lucky if the holes come out where you want them, and they line up the first time! It becomes a question of you deciding if you really feel like making a copy of the same parts!

Re: PFB Tri-Axle King Hauler
 

Theres no mounting holes on that side of the trans. Would have to tie a bracket in from the top. Problem with that is the top of the trans already hits the interior floor. Would like to keep that in tact if possible.

Re: PFB Tri-Axle King Hauler
 

With that frame support just behind the trans I think you will be OK - at least untill most everything else is mounted up. Why not poke some holes in that other side? you would have to take it apart to clean up the shavings and such though...

Re: PFB Tri-Axle King Hauler
 

Why is Izzy always wanting to poke holes in things? Weirdo... ;)
