Default Clicking drive - Tamiya XBG10

Hey guys,

I've dusted off my Tamiya XBG10 and started using it again but it's started making a noise which I remembered from last time. A horrible clicking coming from the back of the car on WOT from a standstill or when steering is hard over. I'm tempted to pull it apart to find out if the diff gears are jumping or stripped, but I'd rather get a second opinion before I go straight into that!
The other thing is are there many spare parts available for this car? Or upgrades even? The handling is a bit shoddy tbh with ploughing understeer (I'm ready to remove the front driveshafts so that it'd rear wheel drive, should make it a bit more fun) but is there any way of getting the fronts to bite a bit harder? Is it just a case of different wheels/tyres or are there suspension mods, anti roll bars etc. that can be added?

Cheers.

Rob
