I'd bet money that this is coming from Axial soon. I'd also bet that when it does happen is when the 2 speed parts will be released.

This is what you need to buy. Even if the yeti 2 speed was available, the mount points are different and its quite a bit larger. Not worth the trouble IMO.

That AX2 is a great trans though. Holds up to quite a bit of abuse.

I'm just not a fan of rc4wd, there not known for build quality r2 tranny notorious problems. Bead locks cutting tires. also the yota branded crawler with diff's with wrong diff mounts. There passenger side diff's are passenger side. I went order a yoga rtr's, they me to pay 70.00 shipping because they don't stock them. They have you pay for shipping from Asia. Sorry for ranting.

In my thinking for swapping was to combine the yeti mount to the wraith trans mount to the tranny to work.

The design of the tranny would make it hard. The front output is way back, due to the fact that it mates up to a solid mounted front drive shaft. Would be easy to overcome with an IFS wraith, but the front shaft moving up and down is going to occupy the same space as the skid.

Would a carrier bearing set up work?

On the driveline? It should.

I don't think it's going to be an issue at all. Real toyotas running double or triple tcases have the same thing going on, long front shaft and short rear shaft.

Do they have a huge square of plastic holding the bottom of the truck together?

You would need to cut a slot in the skid, not sure what that would do for strength.

Pending which cage was run, there's ways around that. "thumbsup"
