Also another hint. When you weld the adapter on the sprocket weld it so the set screws point between the teeth. This makes it easy to get to the set screw when the chain is on the sprocket.

Go to the rctank website and look at Wil's #T017.  The last 3 pictures will give you a idea of what tooth count you may want. You and I are using Will's #60 chain. So you need to figure out what tooth count you can use. His front gear is a 17x60. 17 tooth and #60 chain. He is using 5/8 bore size or 5/8 axle shaft diameter. And I can not find gears in anything other then 5/8 bore.
Go to www.valu-bilt.com   Go to chains and sprockets
The IDLER gears you use for the non-driven axle. They have a bearing in center so they just idle. The DRIVE gears do not have a bore. You have to buy the X adapter to weld to gear. I have not found another sorce at this time. Remember #60 chain. That's the gears your looking for!
