I installed the FOC shaft and when I would spin the spur gear either way, the diff outputs would turn. Last night, I tore it back down, opened up the transmission and found the problem. The one-way bearing on first gear has seized for some reason, so I turned it hard until it came unstuck, WD40'd it, and put it all back together. Everything spins fine now.
Just wondering... is that a warning sign that I'm going to need to replace that bearing soon?

I know what this feels like... when i received my HPI Goliath tires i couldnt believe the look they gave to the truck. The only problem is that it got much slower!!!! Outer diameter 7.1"... hugh!!!!!
They are the Hot Bodies 7" UFO wheels w/ Flame tread tires. As far as I know, my buddy owns a local rc store and hasnt been able to get them, said they are backordered. I got them on ebay from a lady for $65 delivered which is like super cheap. They are about $100+ but there are some on there going a little cheaper. Let me tell ya, the things are huge, I thought they would make the truck look weird cause of the size proportion but they actually work very well with the size!

RE: Anyone own a Warhead?
Hey guys I have a warhead evo for sell. I broke the front bumper and bent the roll bar but I have a ton of spar parts and it even has a extra super tiger 4.4. I have a XTM 24.7 installed in it now. I can't get it to run right but it does run... if you are interested in it let me know.. As far as extra parts I have 2 shock towers, bunper assy, slipper clutch assy, clutch bell, control arms, turn buckels (all diff sizes), roll bar, air filter assy, body mounts, body, and the list goes on and on, if you are interested in it please PM me and I will e-mail you pics of everything including the truck.
Thanks

RE: Anyone own a Warhead?
Quick HElP!!!
I just bought the warhead evo less then a month ago. So far its a great truck. The 1st thing I was going to do was put a new engine in it. How ever my plans have changed I HAVE THE MONSTER TRUCK FEVER!!!!.No new engine till later. I just bought the mt8.0 and it will be here soon. But I was thinking of putting a new pipe on the super pooper till I do get the os .30 this spring. Can someone give me the names of a couple good pipes around $50 that will help give the pooper a little more torc. I plan on going to day to buy it so if I could get a couple quick responses that would be sweet.
