Willspeed has announced the release of their first drop fit 5 gear gearbox casing/conversion on the Schumacher LD3 2WD Buggy platform. This is an inclusive conversion that includes two aluminium machined case halves, hardware and enclosed gear cover to fit that 5 gear goodness to your Schumacher LD3. The gearbox relocates the motor +21mm further forward compared to the standard location, a popular setup option in modern off road buggy racing for improving corner speed in medium to high traction scenarios. They have selected the idler gear size to maximise efficiency and reliability, maintaining a higher tooth count provides a fuller tooth engagement, notably even more so on the 32dp gear pitch that Schumacher uses. Maintaining the same gear size as the standard LD3 also allows choice between using Schumacher’s gears or our own WS PEEK gears. The design retains the use of the original gearbox top to maintain the quick diff access. Please note, due to the relocation of the motor, this also relocates the spur gear, meaning the bodyshell must be cut around our included enclosed gear cover. Gearbox halves manufactured in 6082 Aluminium. Gear cover manufactured from Nylon.

This leaves the track width unchanged but gives the short arm, wide pivot setup. The wide pivot gives the car more on power steering and more stability when cornering and will allow the car to centre (square-up) faster coming through the last third of the turn as the driver is getting on power. This product includes both C and D Blocks and must be used as a pair. Both items follow design trends from our proven standard geometry parts. D block remains in Willspeed’s full brace fashion which has been highly popular for ultimate reliability.
