Default RE: clutch spring

There should be a groove on the outside of the shoes for the spring to go in. However, if it just popped off then it's probably broken. You can either get a Traxxas spring for it (4146x I think) or bend out the last coil of the spring out to from a loop to hook the other end of the spring on.

Default RE: clutch spring

does the spring go completely around the clutch shoes in the grove and hook to each other, one end of the spring to the other?

its always a good idea to twist the ends of the spring in oposite directions a couple of turns so the loops stay locked into each other

It's also easier to make the loop THEN put your clutch shoes in the loop one at a time.
