Status: offline 		yeah good idea. might be just that. i'll take a look and see how tight i actually had it and buy a new spur on monday and rip around the truck again.

any ideas on my driveline problem?
when i hold the back wheels and push the front forward it makes a nasty click sound when it should actually lock up the wheels. i'm thinking it is a ring/pinion gear crunch problem..the sound only comes from the front but i don't see any signs of metal shards of anything..even when i'm ripping around the yard i pull the throttle and the back wheels light up and the front wheels kinda are at about 3/4 when you compare to the rear tires.

so i don't know. i think it may be my front bulkhead set that needs replacing cause the one i have now for the front is defective? causing a wrong alinement and therefore making it crunch.

beets me...what do you think?

How tight is that nut? I've had good luck tightening it to full lock, then backing off about a quarter-turn.



Yeah i did exactly that but no sucess. i did the paper trick aswell and i burned 2 today..
it just happens like id go off a jump then go to do a speed run and the engine just goes "Wreeeeeee.." cause of the clutchbell practically MELTING the spur gear....

hmmm sounds like your engine mount is moving after the jump.

Status: offline 		humm...that would explain why the one side of my spur gear is melted..the clutchbell touched the spur and melted the one side and the gears..Humm..inteeresting. guess it's time for a new mount.

Yeah well been there done that. 2 of the screw holes are stripped anyway need a new mount, not that much for a new one roughly about 10 bucks.
