Would Loose Spring damage Clutch Shoe
T-MAXX 4908... I used a loose Spring in my Clutch Shoe & after few hours of running may 3 hours or less the Clutch Shoe braked & so did the Spring. I have a brand New T-Maxx 4908, after few hours of running, the original Clutch Shoe Spring broke & I replaced it with another which was a bit loose, loose in a sense that it was flexible unlike the original which was very stiff. I hope when I install the original One it shouldn't brake again for I Live in Pakistan & there are no parts available here.

what I have done in the past with loose clutch springs is shortened it....Its a little tricky but can be done you cut the spring then bend out the last loop to act as a hook to attach it to the other end of the spring.

RE: Would Loose Spring damage Clutch Shoe
Hi Brother TMaxx Driver,
I purchased me Revo & T-Maxx from HobbyTown Dallas. They are really great people specially the owner of the shop. I get my spare parts from them & Yes they have Shipped me the T-Maxx & Revo to Pakistan & some free spare parts worth $70 which I,m grateful to them for that & their support , but It,s not easy for an individual like me in Pakistan buying these expensive RC's for these 2 RCs costed me so much as if I,m buying 4 Rcs in USA.
