Status: offline 		Mine started to ding, I removed the bearing to find that it started to come apart. Also, is there any other trans shafts I can use on the front wheels. I ran my car and one of the dog bones vanished form the front. I tried getting replacements from Redcat but they said to use another, don't carry the one listed in the manual. It is the 84mm shaft, the ones they said to buy is like 1/8" to long.

So is the bell dinging normal? I am guessing it is simply the shoes engaging the bell.

Thanks,

Pete

Status: offline 		ehroof,

Any idea what the part numbers are for either the redcat bearings or a third party replacement? The manual doesn't even have a picture of the clutch bell assembly, let alone a parts list.

thanks,

Pete

Status: offline 		Does anyone know where I can get front and rear aluminum carriers for the tornado xp? My rear carriers heat up and melt on the outside face. The bearings are fine, so thats not the problem.

Status: offline 		What shims does it need? I'm not a newbie by no means, but I just don't see how it can be shimed! It could just be a defect in the part, its only the right rear that does it. Do you have a washer behind the drive pin? Just wondering, because mine dos'nt on either side, but it does have it on the inside! Its kinda like cat n mouse!
