540 cans are the stock size the Tamiya kits come with. Plain silver can motor cheap and you can get them everywhere. I like the tamiya three speed with gear reduction/low count pinion. I ran mine with stock can and pinion with 4:1 on 3S lipo and was still pretty quick. I limited throttle on my radio a bit in fwd and lot for reverse.

Thanks.. No room for the 3 spd. I built the truck planning on using a motor and gearbox that Rick (Roque) used but the link he sent me a long time ago don't work anymore.

I got it all figured out thanks to TC... I will be using a 540/55t with the RC4WD Disruptor. That should get me closer to the speeds I want.
