Default Nitro Rustler question

Im a rookie when it comes to this stuff, so tread lightly. On my Rusty motor runs great, but the thing wont move and the spur gear just spins freely. any suggestions would be great thanks. Ryan

took me about 30 minutes to tear it open and figure that the gears were bad, I did take extra apart to figure, like rear shock tower, until I figured I didn't need to. But thats part the reason I am getting into rc cars the fact its cheaper to replace stuff when it breaks versus a real vehicle, and easier to repair. Part of the fun, fixing stuff.
