hey my buddy has the gear diff in his with a 13.5 motor and it squeels when it takes off. tightened the slipper up and it still does it. could it be the diff making that noise? i am a total newb with these gear diffs and i have always had a ball diff in my SC10.....

i have a 5700kv motor and my slipper is just fine looser than his is. so what could it be?

Its not funny lol nothing pisses me off more than that... ill be turning laps with that stupid timing lady 22.3. 22.6, 22.2 and i want 21's so i punch it coming down the straight and it dog legs left so i loose steering WHAM right into the pole.

i can replace the front bulkhead and arms in under 4 min.

Alot of practice

If its a hard packed track it might just be the wheels spinning. Is this the sound you are hearing?

No idea i run my slipper way loose also so that on the starts i can get onto the gas alot faster and it helps keep the power on the ground, and its almost silent.

Check gear mesh, if its to tight it will squeel, if its to loose it will chatter.

no its alot more of a squeel than the video. my truck sounds just like the one in the vid. his is way worse.

i never checked his gear mesh so ill be sure to do that. just doesnt sound like a mesh noise. but it could be now that you mention that.

could the pads be glazed over from him running it really loose? now it just slips no matter what?

oh yea i can change the arm in about 4-5 min now too. LOL

I dont think its the slipper cause i have run myn really loose when i first got the motor and it doesnt make a squel noise. I wouldnt think it could be the mesh but some of those pinions are so damm weird you never know, i would check the mesh if that doesnt work its time for a rebuild !

Edit - It has to be the mesh, or something is just totally not right inside then you need to rebuild it.

you know what......now that you mention something about a pinion.....

i gave him a new pinion to gear down to.....its a 14 yr old pinion......that could be it because i never heard it like that from his truck before that.....

two minds are always better than one.....THANKS!

Yea pinions are dumb !!

GL let me know if it fixes it so i can add that to my notepad

i run on stock and goosebumps and have a 5700 in the slash. heat was an issue thats why i went with 4600. i bought the esc used and had i changed a few of his settings. the punch was at 40% and i left that go. should i change that to 0?
I'll reset to default and start over

my punch is default and its plenty of power when i stab it.

what is default? 0%?

Yeah, 0% control over it is default. That's the "highest" setting, so yeah, it would have plenty of power. Start "controlling" it and you'll have less start-up punch.

that could be part of my problem

Just wanted to let everyone know that I am a homosexual.
