Traxxas TRX .12 brakes.

Post by rnoswal3434 »

I got my Traxxas Nitro sport 2wd running finally after getting the rear sorted out and a new carb.. So, it runs well but the brakes are a mystery. I know how they work but the main bent wire setup that presses the plates together keeps dropping so that the adjuster on the bottom end isn't pressing against anything. Is there anyone with aome pictures of the setup? I can't find a parts breakdown of the brakes but can of the transmission and rear suspension.

Its old and I know its hard to find info on the older stuff but if I can get the brakes to work, could be a fun truck to thrash a bit and let the kids tryout at the local track.

thanks

Russ

That confirms how I put mine back together then. A very clear picture of that braking system. I had to modify mine a bit because of wear but it does work now. Thank you!
