Traxxas 3956 Spur gear, 54-tooth (0.8 metric pitch, compatible with 32-pitch)

I upgraded my Rustler to 32P gears. No need (they say) for the dust cover anymore. It just looks cooler without it. I use the blue RPM transmission with a metal plate and these gears work great. The gear mesh is similar but slightly different than 48P gear mesh. (though not that difficult to get used to) I noticed immediately that the gear was wobbling. It isn't the gears fault though. It is the stock traxxas slipper clutch plate causing the wobble. (the plate closest to the transmission that has the shiny metal slipper plate attached to it) I ordered the Hot Racing slipper clutch plate to resolve this. (many others have done this as well) The slight wobble isn't really an issue at all. You could just ignore it. I want my 32P gears to run super smooth though so I bought that HR part to fix it.32P does make a little more noise. I like it. It isn't obnoxious or annoying, it is just louder.32P spur gears (plastic or metal) should last a very long time compared to 48P gears that strip out.

Believe it or not, this is an upgrade from an aluminum spur. Plastic absorbs more vibration and spins faster without using so much of the motors power. Alluminum Spurs and rock hard and strip your pinion, Transfer vibration to you slipper and rear diff. it's only 3$ to replace a plastic spur. Not 30$. Make sure to get 2-3 if you bash because an annoying pebble can get in there and ruin your day if you don't have extras. A+

I bought this gear for $2.82 with amazon prime. I have had the traxxas slash ultimate 4x4 edition for about 4 years now and this is the first time I have ever had to replace something and I beat the hell out of it for years. If you want your spur gear to last even longer than mine did i'd recommend you not pull the trigger all the way when the car is at rest (build up the speed), but this peace is so cheap just have fun with it. These cars are meant to get beat up.

Works as intended powered plastic though so doesn’t last long

Well it is a Traxxas part so it works well!received quickly.

upgraded my Slash 4x4 motor, but didnt upgrade the rear mount. motor got loose and started taking away this gear. Replaced rear mount with aluminum one and replaced gear. cant believe how long the original lasted.

Easy to install!

Worked out perfect.
