What pully's did you use with the 3mm belts.
I'd like to convert mine to use 3mm so its safe to use brushless etc

Would you be interested in doing an upgrade kit as you have the suppliers
wink wink !!!

Diff pulleys were from the Yok BX (33T), but remember you also need another three smaller pulleys for the center and front layshafts, so its not just a case of dropping in different gears

Its not as simple as a upgrade kit otherwise i would of upgraded my XX4

Thanks for getting back
Is there better belts on the market that fit the standard pully's

Cheers

Going through this thread shows just how much talent you guys all have for the design development of existing chassis.
I was thinking of selling my BJ4-WE but now I'm considering a little 'project'!!
Top work as always from all the guys involved with the AC designs.

Photo 2 - This is comparing the car against a 501

Photo 3 - The tubbed version of the car, i am pretty sure Simon Reeves and Brian Preddy ran the car, problem i had was it really needed some aluminium parts like the motor plate instead of plastic which flex a lot. And with a XX4 rear end and a Cat SX front end, it would be to expensive to produce a kit as you need two donor cars. But with 3mm pitch and wider belts it was better suited for brushless and lipos.
That carbon tubed updated xx4 should be awsome with orange colored gearboxes ....damn ...

when can i buy one ???
