X-Maxx Drivetrain Summary

The TXM355517T assembly pairs an aluminium adapter with a hardened 55T steel spur and a 17T motor gear designed for TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx platforms. The aluminium adapter sets motor position while the steel spur offers a durable running surface for the large gear.

This combination establishes a specific gear ratio commonly used in X-Maxx rigs and is suitable for replacing worn components, exploring alternate gearing, or restoring correct mesh after service.

Fitment advice: verify spline and tooth counts match your existing parts, tighten motor mounting before final mesh checks, and re-inspect bolts after a short running session. Keep gear backlash modest to prevent premature wear.

Specifications

  • Item: Aluminium gear adapter with 55T steel spur and 17T motor gear, 1 set
  • Material: Aluminium adapter, steel spur, steel motor gear
  • Model Number: TXM355517T
  • Compatibility: TRAXXAS 1/8 X-Maxx

This adapter, spur and pinion set is a practical swap for X-Maxx owners servicing drivetrains or testing gear ratios during setup changes.

Can I reuse my existing motor pinion with this adaptor?

You can reuse a pinion if it matches the 17T profile and spline; otherwise fit the supplied 17T motor gear to ensure correct mesh and alignment.

Is the steel spur quieter than plastic spurs?

Steel spurs typically produce a firmer acoustic signature and wear differently than plastic; use proper lubrication and check for wear patterns after break-in.

What tools are recommended for installation?

Basic hex drivers, a torque driver for motor mounts, and feeler gauges or a business card for initial mesh setup are usually sufficient for this installation.

Will I need to change maintenance intervals?

Monitor wear on the steel spur and pinion during the first few runs; maintenance frequency should be set based on observed wear rather than a fixed interval.
