Ya , The gears were pretty gummed up. I bought the truck used and just did a light going over. But what I did like I mentioned was a complete tear down and clean and rebuild. I mean I clean all gearbox pieces to new like condition and rebuilt the gear box with a new Tamiya gear box housing. What I d...

Forgot to mention I cleaned all metal bits (ie) rear axles, bevel gear pins even used autosol to polish them enery metal part in the gear box was washed and poished.

Just checking bearings at the moment

Well did a total tear down to find out that for the most part everything looked good other than a heck of alot of grease in the diff spur gear the counter gear bevel gears every where gummed up good. So going to give her a really good clean and rebuild .

Ya still using original pinion it's all I had . Where do I find an upgrade ?

Ok at the risk of sounding stupid what exactly am I looking for, all i see is looks like black grease not sure where it is from .Possible pinion rubbing somewhere but can't tell no wear marks , confused

Ya very true A sport tuned motor would not due any damage right ? Well in I go I will report back.

The bearings were new . Ya I suppose I will take apart was trying to avoid that but in I go.

Well finally got my parts I ordered and installed and boy what a difference , I sure missed driving this truck. I must take pictures.

Can those parts be found at your LHS?

Thanks
