I have a tmaxx with 1 1/2 gallons in it and the traney makes a clacking sound when the truck is moveing. it is not to load and I cant hear it when the truck is running. dos anyone also have this? BTW 1/2 gallon has been with a .18tm, but it made the sound before I got the 18

Check your diffs. Normally any clicking sound would be made when the pinion gear is skipping on the ring gear.

Does it do it at idle? If so my truck does that if the idle is set too high

You might want to check your clutch.

it is not the diff. I dont know if it dos it at it idle because I dont hear it when the truck is runing. ( it is not that load)

For what? I took it apart last night and sanded the contact surfaces in the bell and shoes to get a smooth fresh start, and it seems to stay engaged all the time for some reason. I mean the spur gear will spin at idle.

Is your truck jerking slightly while idle? If so you may just be idling too high and engaging the tranny.

Do you still have reverse? If so maybe your reverse servo is not engaging forward properly?

That sounds to me like its a Clutch Spring problem, eiter the spring is gone..lol, or its stretched out to far.

Im honestly not to sure what the clicking sound could be however, I know that when my Clutch Shoe spring on my Max went, the shoes flopped around in the Bell when I would just push the truck.

might wanna put in new clutchbell bearings they might be seizing and causeing this prob with the spur gear turning. the clicking is it only when you first take off

The sound comes from the trany, and no were else. do I need to oli the trany? it dos not make the sound when idleing only when the weels are moveing.
