Traxxas Stampede BL-2S | Center Diff UPGRADE

In today’s video we are upgrading from a slipper clutch to a center differential in the Stampede BL-2S (VXL). This isn’t a hard repair, and should take you but 5-10min to complete. This should offer the Stampede better overall performance, and smoothing acceleration. Below you will finds links to where you can purchase the parts use in this video.

Solid tutorial👍

[@allisonrichartz3128]

Please post more videos😢

[@charliesschroedinger]

Can't wait for the Slash diff video. Been wondering if that's a good first step to take with my stock one.

[@redbanditracing]

Definitely, smooth acceleration, and less stress on axles.

[@HighTimesRacing_RC]

You guys gonna put sway bar kit on Slash?

[@charliesschroedinger]

@@HighTimesRacing_RC what's the benefit/drawback?

[@redbanditracing]

Definitely, it’s going to help on the track.

[@allisonrichartz3128]

You should also put in the 512 XL motor

[@redbanditracing]

Eventually

[@laho1106]

Thanks, good tutorial! Just wondering what makes it more "bashable", slipper or differential? :) I see Arrma coming out with center diffs in their bashers and Traxxas usually stays with slipper.

[@redbanditracing]

We’ve been bashing with the slipper for years, never once replaced the pads, or slipper disc.

[@laho1106]

Exactly, do you expect the center diff to be just as good for bashing??​@@redbanditracing

[@redbanditracing]

Most definitely! The HOSS does very well bashing and holds up just fine.

[@WADENSWAY]

hey brother do you know the part number for the center drive shaft, my local hobby store keeps sending the wrong one with the part number of 6755

[@redbanditracing]

The Stampede BL-2S is 6765, and you’ll need 6888X. The number they were giving you is for the Stampede 4x4 VXL, they must of changed the length. Hope that helped

[@Brettloves_RCS]

Hmm I wonder what is better

[@TKSHobby]

That’s my question too lol I hope it helps stabilize it mine is wild on 3s almost took out the neighbor’s car 😅

[@LilBITRC_Shady]

@@TKSHobbyacceleration is usually smoother without slipper. Definitely gonna save on breaking axles.

[@Markkrochuk1979]

Sorry, theres a bit of the chassis blocking it at the top of the gear.

[@redbanditracing]

It squeezes out, bearing may also fight you a bit

[@Markkrochuk1979]

I got it out, it just needed to be pushed down about 1/16”

[@Markkrochuk1979]

I cant remove/change the spur gear on my BL2s, it seems to be blocked in my the shock tower. Any advice on how to remove it?

[@redbanditracing]

Shock tower is part of the rear chassis that you removed to access the center diff. Shouldn’t be anything in the way.

[@Norris90ify]

Hey mate, love your videos! Just subscribed to your page. Is this upgrade compatible with 2bs system? As the vxl is in the car you are working on.

[@redbanditracing]

The 2bs system? Did you mean the BL-2S?

[@Norris90ify]

@@redbanditracing Oops, I definitely mean the BL-2S system haha.

[@redbanditracing]

The Stampede 4X4 BL-2S is the same as the VXL model minus the electronics, steering/suspension upgrades, and center differential.

[@Norris90ify]

@@redbanditracing Cool! Thanks dude.
