    Status: offline     		I decided to post here because redcat/exceed and himoto all have the same model as I do. The infinitive ep pro, just with different names, and the exceed forum tends to stick to just nitros.
    From the 3 sites (redcat, exceed and himoto) where I know to get parts for this model of rc, it shows a cover that goes over and wraps around the spur, pinion, and part of the rear diff box, yet none of the sites nor (on the phone with support) know what I am talking about.. Apparently it doesnt exist. So was it photo shopped in? Or are they discontinued? Why, i don't know, because I have gone through 17 spur gears within the last month in a half, from little rocks getting caught between the spur/pinion gears. I have searched far an wide, yet this cover seems non-existent to no avail. If any of you have seen this or knows where i can get one pleassssssssssssee tell me so I can stop buying spur gears.
    Thanks in advance
    Kyle

    Redcats lightening drift model has the cover.

    your model tho is the same as the redcat volcano(truck version) but i think the 2 use the same chassis and upper chassis plate(so the cover should work on yours as well.

    its odd, as redcat's lightening epx pro(brushless version of the drift car) doesnt seem to have the cover?

    here is a pic of the drift version. is this the cover you mean? the cover is 2 pieces, so it wraps around to cover the spur and pinion.
