quinnlouis Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 As some may know I bought one pre owned came today and it's making a massive click and clanging noise as if it's skipping gears or something. Quick look and the spur an pinion seem fine. Can anyone help. Please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kpowell911 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Open the diffs? Seems like its either a worn ring or pinion gear (in the diff, NOT the motor pinion). Cant you just get a refund? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont wanna offend here but Ive no idea why people waste money on all these unknown RCs, Im convinced dont save money in the long run. Youre gonna have to potentially rebuild the diffs, and attempt to get parts which may not even exist anymore 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kpowell911 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 And then you have next to no resale value, its a false economy in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
