oh ya I did not even think about that. i could definatly take a look at that tonight when i get home and can check in the manuel. im about to order all the diff components from the thunder tiger phoenix xb, i figure since they come brushless maybe it will hold better because i have had nothing but p...

I did when I originally rebuilt it but not today. and yesterday I was driving it at the same place and it was just fine,

hey everyone, so I rebuilt my b3 diff and have ran maybe 10 batteries in it now and everything has been good till today. I went to run it and it has like no torque and the top speed is slow. I have the mamba max pro with a trinity nemesis 13.5 turn in it and I was easily keeping up with a stock slas...

B3, In the Kimbrough range, you need a spur gear that looks like these ones in the link below to fit your B3.. Most hobby shops should carry these in stock.. http://kimbroughracingproducts.com/store/index.php?dispatch=categories.view&category_id=199 Cheers Mark.. Oh ok thanks. So this probly wo...

Well son of a gun. They have the kimborough but not for the b3 or t3 just b4 and up. But they have holes in multiple spots...I'm guna take my spur off and see if any of the holes will line up tomorrow

What about the t3 spur?

Do you know why?

Anyone know if the b4 spur gear will work on my b3? All stock on the b3. I don't wan to wait on shipping for a b3 spur and my hobby shop has the b4 in stock. Both are 48p 81t....
Thanx

WOW...I feel pretty dumb lol I forgot to remove the old diff drive rings and put the new ones on them. Haha hopefully it goes back together right this time

ok so i should try swapping the hub that i have the thrust screw in?

oh really ok cuz i was kinda confused about which side is which on the hubs. i guess ill try switching the thrust assembly to the other hub

Sounds like maybe the diff rings are not seated on the hubs. Something is keeping your diff from closing completely, which is why you couldn't get the screw in without the spring, and why the trans case wouldn't close. You definitely need to go step for step exactly when it come to the diff, and yo...

ok i guess ill have to take it all back apart when i get a chance.

and when i was putting it all back together the tranny case did not want to close at the bottom where the diff gear is....seems like that is binding it up but i dont see why it would be any different since it was the b3 rebuild kit.....ssooo frustrated with it!

so i rebuilt my diff today in my b3 and followed the manuel step for step and now the wheels wont turn when i give it gas, i have tried loosening the diff and the slipper and there is no difference. well i guess i shouldnt say step for step because i was not able to get the screw to get even close t...
