Default Nitro Evader ST Clutch Problems

I have a nitro evader st, and I think that the clutch is bad. the truck will not move under its own power on the ground but as soon as I lift the back tires of the ground they will spin under the motors power. I need help, please give me some ideas. I have a clutch coming friday, should I also buy a clutch bell. I need to know as soon as possible. Dale

ok, than check to make sure your differential is also tightened down. once when i did a rebuild i didnt tighten the differential enough and that was slipping. so make sure your diff didnt loosen at some point.

might be having the problem I had a while ago. Check the slipper bushing, the two brass bushings in the slipper setup (they could be worn).

i had a feeling it was something in the tranny. since your going to replace it anyway why not order the metal replacement gears? thats what i did, and ill also provide some links to some really good grease.
