He has the gear assembly in backwards-I did the same thing a couple of days ago []

yeah the nut holder will go all the way i dont know what u mean about the outdrives and diff but yes the dog bones wont go in enough to make the spring but could you tell me more about the outdrive and diff setup
thanks

pocketear

the gear assambly please explain

IZZYinIOWA

As aclark said, sounds like your outdrives and diff gear are in backwards. In other words, the round-slotted thing that are in the diff that the dog bones go into, they are in backwards. You need to take your diff apart and flip the outdrive/diff gear around so they come out the opposite side they are now. The nut and nut holder needs to come out on the engine side of the diff and the head of the screw in the diff that you adjust the tightness of your diff needs to be on the side next to your spur gear.
Hope that helps.

the instruction manual is wrong on the diff built, the screw that holds it all together needs to go in the opposite side of the diff than the manual says.

yep that is what i would say it is. I did that once when totally disasembling my evader... put it back together and what the the shocks were binding so took it allo back apart and low and behold wrong way lol. FFlipped it over and havnt had a problem since so all is good, all u need to di is take the diff case of the truck, take the main gear with the outdrives attatched out and flip over assemble back together and your off. Easily done. Will take less than 10 minutes

Hey guys........

Im running a OS 18cv-rx and boy does it kick butt. I actually have trouble keeping the front wheels on the ground. Which brings me to my first question;

Does anyone know of a wheelie bar that will work on the evader or have any idea on how to make one?

Next question...

The OS 18 cv-rv i got came with a slide carb......i was able to get a rotery carb from a friend and im using that now but i was wondering if anyone knows if you can modify the throttle linkage
to us a slide carb??

ferrariowner123

you could just put weights in the front to keep it on the ground

You could also move the battery box from the rear to the front.

that will also help the car land on all four wheels, going off a jump

i need a better air filter.what will work with this vehicle.

Evader ---> MGT

10-11mm motorsaver filters but I really like the stock one. It's big and filters well. You can also just get the foam i believe.

ford f150

i just sent my engine into duratrax due to loss of compression.

Evader ---> MGT

Good idea. I send mine in about every 2gal. What's the longest anyone has had a DTX.18?

Frank88888888

FINALY i got all the parts i broke on my last accident and my truck is ready to roll il prolly take it out tomarow and make up for all the lost bashing time i missed while it was broken heres a pic i just took[8D] Notice the bulkhead, and shock towersthe rest of the stuff you cant see.

docphysics

what do you need to send it in? I bought mine used off of ebay and the compression is shot! If I print up a fake receipt and send it in, do you think it will work?

docphysics

SUH-WEET ride frank! Can't wait to see how banged up those pretty shock towers get when you crash it with the body off!

Frank88888888

You know it

***Im completely parting out my few month old evader. It has had 1 gallon run through it with no problems. Everything is going and will be posted piece by piece on ebay this sunday. If anyone wants to shoot me offers or ask questions on anything feel free. The engine will will come with proof of purchase so you can take advantage of the more than year and a half warranty still on it! Everything is stock except the alumin diff with carbide balls.

Im selling this because I cant afford to keep up with the hobby. Low ballers welcome, ill listen to any offer.***

Evader ---> MGT
