Derka Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Hi Korey90, Could upload a photo of the radio handset? Some pictures of the front and rear axles might help us identify whats wrong. Has it always been like this or did it just happen after some running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derka Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 Are you able to take a video? If you can then try videoing when you give it throttle and focus on the gears and see if the big gear (spur gear) spins. If the spur spins then its likely something in the transmission be it the centre bit or the drive to the front and rear axles. If the spur rotates then slipper clutch (if it has one) is ok and not slipping and needs no adjustment. Then focus on the front and rear drive shafts and see if they rotate, if they dont, its the middle transmission problem. If they do rotate its going to be the front or rear diff but I suspect its something going on with the middle transmission Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DartmoorTrails Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 If the motor is spinning and all wheels are static then i'd guess your pinion gear is loose - that's the small gear which attaches to the motor output shaft; there'll be a small grub screw in there which if it wasn't threadlocked has probably backed out and therefore not engaging the spur gear, which is the bigger gear that drives the transmission yada yada. Fortunately you can get to it all real easy and this'll end up being fixed in no time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
