I am debating on modifying my 2 speed to fit with the new 4x4 kit. What gearing comes stock on the single speed? I can't decide if I want single or 2 speed. I put the 28.5 ESP Championship ported head kit in it so I think even with a single speed it will be more then good enough. I think this truck will be really unstable at high speeds (2 speed). What are peoples opinions?
 
I didnt like it on my mt for the short period of time i had it on there, but i was 2wd. Its staying on my Marder which will have the 4wd upgrade very soon. But i'll be running on road only with it.
 
So I should stick with single speed? Which gearing do you think with the ESP Championship ported motor? 2 speed seems like it could be a pain. I am going to be running it in dusty dirty places so I am guessing the one way bearing wont last long. I ordered every gear combo out except the 22/42 tooth? combo. I am thinking about getting a killer bee kill switch but I will need a 4pk to use that if I am thinking right. One for steering, one for throttle and front brakes, one for rear brakes and another for the kill switch. So much more money yet...

I have a bunch of new gears on the way for single speed. I will mod the 2 speed and see if I want to go that route or stick with the single speed and just gear it differently. So many options it sucks.
