Hey guys, i recently acquired an evader and in the process of checking it out, i noticed that the spur gear is not directly lined up with the clutch. Is this the normal setup for this truck? I don't have a pic to show but if you look in BIGSTANG's photo gallery; 3rd pic, it shows exactly what I'm talking about.

Also, I'm in the process of rebuilding the transmission and i wanted to know if just replacing stock thrust balls with carbides would solve the known melting gear issue, thanks!
