Help please!
I have a Traxxas TMAXX 2.5 which I ran into a wall goin about 25 mphhttp://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/js/f.../sad_smile.gif. Now it will not run the tires. The engine will start fine and all of the electronics work, but when I give it gas, the wheels do not turn. When I press the throttle, the big black gear will spin, and when I turn the wheels, it will not spin. Im a newbie so talk dumb in your responses please. Anything will help. Thanks in advance!!!!</p> |
RE: Help please!
Start taking it apart and see what broke. Something in the drive line got smoked.

RE: Help please!
Do you know why something in the trans would break by just running it into a wall? Lol
|
RE: Help please!
Yeah, because things can break when slammed into solid objects. In a crash at 25mph you can damage most anything on a car.

ORIGINAL: dcornwell14 Do you know why something in the trans would break by just running it into a wall? Lol Broke the Diff's, tweaked the chassis, just to name a few. You basically will have to take it apart in stages and try rotating every piece to see what is binding, and then fix it. |

Once I get inside will there be any type of fluid that ill have to deal with/put more in when im done (ive never taken one apart)?
|
RE: Help please!
Unless you take apart the diffs themselves or the shocks you won't unleash any fluids. Grease and oil maybe.
|
RE: Help please!
Took it apart and found the problem! There was some grease so should I grease everything back up or just let it be? Im hearin different things from different people.

RE: Help please!
Well if grease was removed during the tear down then put back as much grease as you think you removed.
