Hey all..I have a 2 speed BB and it only engages in one of them. Not sure if it starts in 1st or 2nd. How do I adjust it so it works both gears?

Hibityhupla!

There is a little allen set-screw in the transmission for shift point adjustment. The one that goes straight down is the one that holds it to the shaft. The one at an angle is the one you want to adjust. Turn in clockwise for a later shift point(in) or turn it counterclockwise for earlier shift point(out). Make small adjustments or you can go to far pretty easy.

As far as what gear you are in now try to rev up very slowly. You will hear it shift. If you can't your probably stuck in first.

Hibityhupla!

haven't even got it broke in yet.. I've had lots going on. Should get to it by this weekend. When it's done you'll have to e-mail me and give me an address to send a dvd. Haven't tried to put anything on youtube yet. Dvd's are easy enough to burn though.

anyone eles having trouble finding spur gears. well i found a great replacement. i found that a spur gear from a hpi rs4 fit like a glove. all that needs done is a little sanding so that the e-clip can go back on the shaft. it took me 5 min to put it back together. hope this helps for all you out there looking.....

I'M THINKING OF BUYING ALL THE STUFF I NEED ON TOWERHOBBIES, BUT THEY DON`T HAVE THE TRANSMISSION OR I CAN'T FIND IT.

i want to put some volcano wheels on my tornado what would i need to change?

Macanan

You would have to go with the single speed tranny and a 13 tooth clutch bell for it to work decent.

dominicevans

macanan

this would work with the tornado rite? http://www.redcatracing.com/itemdeta...p?partno=02107

Macanan

Im not sure but if its on the redcats sight it will fit, the one I got for mine was the 13 tooth racing clutch bell from clermont

ARD178

oh by the way i did not read the caps thing i am sorry i forgot that writing in caps means yelling jejej. sorry

pd: please answer my questions i want to get my buggy working again.

Redcat Nick

I don't think that carb will work. I know that an os .12 carb will fit but i don't remember from what .12.

ARD178

maybe this one ? what do you think?
