You're not anywhere near a hobby shop? I wouldn't order something off of tower hobbies for that small stuff.

If you're not, I guess I could swing by mine and grab you one and just send it in a cheap crappy envelope for a whole 30 some cents.

(Hey, who you callin' cheap?)

since you have your clutch bell of take some fine grit sand paper and scrub the inside to remove the "gunk" FROM your clutch shoes and do the same TO your clutch shoes, thats why you probably see a "hole" in the clutch bell its probably just build up of gunk because not a lot of people dont clean that gunk

i'm not sure its the xxx-nt, i think its the old xx-nt.an its not all the part. anyway, for the price of a clutch set....why even bother?? just get a new clutch set. And the stock clutch on the evader is a racer one. i keep and extra one in my tool box.

honestly i don't think you will see a difference on a 2wd truck, not enough load on the clutch. i got the original clutch with the vented flywheel and it do find, and i run most of the time in sandpit ( dusty place) with sandpaddle or dirt paw (lot of grip, more load) 4 shoes clutch suit better on 1/8 MT

that my opinion anyway....

RE: HELP!!!!!!!
 
brownstone, do you already have the clutch nut off?
if so, i take a strong flathead screwdriver and pry it off the front of the engine.

brownstone: "HELP ME!!!"

it seems to me that you always need help. Use common scence. It is a flywheel that spins at wicked high rpm. anything that spins that fast is going to be kinda hard to take apart. Put doun the damn pliers and go buy a set of tools at famly dolar or sumthing. 5$ later you will have a pice of crap tool set that will be better than plyers. once this is done and you still cant get it off, thats when you poast sumthing about it on rcu. damn poast *****!!

ThunderbirdJunkie 07-29-2005 12:02 AM

RE: HELP!!!!!!!
 
Mitt, i've never needed any specific tools to remove a flywheel.

now installation is a different story...
no need to insult him, at least he's not that xxxnt kid.
