Hi

I have a standard x4 pro and am looking to upgrade the motor to a losi 6.5t brushless. Will the gearbox be ok or will it need some upgraded parts? I guess a 21 or 22 pinion would be ok too?

The gearbox will be fine,just make sure you shim diffs up nice and tight and have the slipper set to slip slightly on take off.

I run a 5.5 in mine geared 21-85

This will be fine I run a 7.5 with boost. They have released a new rear gearbox mount (pic attatched) I have one coming it should help manage the power of the big motors :D
