And I thought the 1717 was overkill ?More progress tonight!

Finished setting the new hub carrier bearings, as well as setting M2C pillow ball retainers.

With the 2028 putting out so much power, I figured the lest flex in the alignment of the spur, the better. An aluminum mount should help.

50T Pinion and a 36T Spur. Hopefully the 2028 will put out the torque needed... Rumor has it some people are putting 2028s in Arrma 1/8 scale cars at 1:2 gearing, so we'll see.

I had to grind down the shroud over the stupidly large pinion to make it fit in the car, but it does now fit!

And since there was some interest last night, what I finished off the night with. I am more of a Rye guy, and local is even better.
I will likely have to put the build on hold until the M2C diff output shafts are back in stock, as well as the wire sleeve I ordered to show up, but I do have a few smaller things I can upgrade at the moment - shock upgrades, droop screws, etc.
