Status: offline 		Thanks for the help DHYDE79 but that was not my problem. After I tried your advice still rev no forward? So I started to look at the diff in the rear and there seem to be an explosion in the diff case ,I took it apart and the bevel gears were in pieces and the shaft was bent. I took the front apart ant the bevel gears were the same but the diff case seems to be ok. Is this common or did I buy somebodies abused savage? I would like to put something stronger in there, but I dont want to break something else by not upgrading the important parts. Thanke for reading my problems and I could use everones help!!!!!!

Status: offline 		I don't really follow how the diff would let the truck run backwards but not forward....if the diff was toasted, it'd either not deliver any power to the wheels, or would have acted like a locker and not let either one slip, (or somewhere in between) and it'd occur in both directions.....

if you have bite in reverse but not in forward, the reverse module **is** your source of problems, the diffs may be hosed too, but, if it works in one direction it'll work in both.....

the servo linkage might not be the problem though, the reverse module itself could be trashed.....
