ok but under load it prob moves a lot more maybe ??

BM what do you reakon about a grub screw tapped into the casing to hold the bearing down and in place .
Tapped holes no good as the composte plastic is too weak i have put metal rings on as mentioned before by Bentley Marshal tapped them and through the composite to the bearing
I am going to do that before i replace the Carrier as there is not much play at all
I think with all the plastic componnants in the FS the Bearings get hot and melt the plastic causing the play
Cheers

Status: offline 		Thanks for that, I am looking for a 27T and a 36T steel gear for my fs 4wd buggie,
problem is cant get them, saw they did a steel gear set for the monster but gave no sizes,
so wont be going that route
Thanks again
