i have an evader st eletric and it is having a problem with thee diff the diff screw keeps on coming lose and than one you are driving it and you put in in revers quickly or to excelerate you can here the motor trying to get it going but nothing happens and the diff screw is lose again

thanx steve

what do i need to get or what do i need to do

Hi, Welcome to RCU. It seems to be the long allen bolt that runs thru the middle of the diff? If it is this adjuster bolt then you may find a broken thrust washer under the head of the bolt. Probably a new locknut and thrust washers as a minimum. When going around a turn it will cause it to loosen up and then slip.

would this be the right thing to get??

thx for the help

Yes, but that's just my best guess. I'd sure take the trans off, dissasemble it to remove the diff and check it out to make sure. Nothin' worse than replacing something on a guess and then having the same problem show up.

I've had lots of them break, that's why I guessed that was it and also I have been able to remove the bolt and thrust washer pack just by removeing one axle and using an allen wrench to verify the thrust washer is broke. I actually can replace it that way too (with it still in the truck)

yea i checked it out last night and the washer looked to be cracked and worped

also i am loking to put in the lowest turn as posible with out burnuing out the gears (i have a 10turn esc)

is their such thing as an upgraded diff gears?

thx
steve

yes, replace the diff gear and diff rings with the associated rc10B2 diff gear its stronger than the evaders diff gear, also use the B2 diff rings and use a 5x8 size bearing. also replace the idler gear and install the nitro evaders alloy idler gear, it fits.. do these things and you will have an evader that can handle the best brushles... i did this and i ran my evader as high as 48 mph with the mamba 6900.

edit: go take a look at the evader coalition is the largest evader thread in the world and probably the largest here on RCU also.. got questions post them there.

i am trying to stay away from brushless too much money what is the lowest turn non brushless motor i could use after the up grades

thx

im looking for the highest possible proformance non brushless

you said you have a ESC capable of 10 turns right?? then i would get either the team checkpoint or team orion revolution motors between 10 and 12 turns.. i had a 12t revolution in my evader before i went brushless and it was fast. i would say about 32 mph. cant go wrong with either brand both are very good and both have long life brushes, 40+ runs on a set...

team check point which one on road or off road

i use it on pavement and packed dirt and grass
thx steve

wich one

thx steve

out of the 2 the second one, only cus its a double wound motor and they provide more torque, the first one is more for onroad..

i will privide some links on motors i like.... all of them are good for offraod racing just to note... i chose the 11 turn motor cuz even though your esc can handle 10 turns its always wise not to push it. it will get hot and thermal pretty fast, so its usually best to get a motor at least 1 turn over the limit.... here are the links.........................

alright ive made my discision i will go with the 11 turn team orion

thx
steve

good choice, i think it says in the description comes with esc power wire connection.

yes, replace the diff gear and diff rings with the associated rc10B2 diff gear its stronger than the evaders diff gear, also use the B2 diff rings and use a 5x8 size bearing. also replace the idler gear and install the nitro evaders alloy idler gear, it fits.. do these things and you will have an evader that can handle the best brushles... i did this and i ran my evader as high as 48 mph with the mamba 6900.

you know you need the diff balls too, you can either use the ones from ur old set up or get some new ones there cheap.

alright thx a ton lastly what battery should i be running with the 11 turn motor

thx steve

6 or 7 cells, IB 4200 or EP 4200...

srry one more change i dont have a 10turn esc i have a 8turn racing esc intellie speed

do u think i could go with the 10 turn team orion now

thx for all of the help

yes, even 9 turn, just keep your diff tight and your slipper slipping.

should i be getting leads for this motor
what kind
how do u atach them

thx

i think it comes with the wire, its says escpower connection wire in the description, and with that motor you need to solder the wire on, fir better contact.

is there such thing as a cheap but good battery??
