i like to get a cluch basket but i dont use pay pal.

any one have a trick to get the pinion on tight? i can't seem to get a allen in to get the set screw tight. my pinion has come off twice now. the truck runs good got the binding issues fixed. but i am going to take it back apart because i just read about the diffs not having enough fluid in them.

I trimmed a little off the short end of an Allen wrench so it fits in easy and use blue locktite. Never had one come lose.

No tricks , I just use my 5/64 thand tighten the pinion down .

got mine for sale in the for sale section if anyone is interested comes with everything just needs a receiver and controller and your ready to race.

what i did was put the motor in the truck to get the pinion in the right place and snug it up the best you can, then loosen the motor screws almost all the way, so you can tilt the motor up. This allows you to get a good angle on the grub screw to get it nice and tight.

It might sound complicated, or time consuming, but it only takes a minute or two.

hey coyoteslash, do you have any chassis braces ready to go? might need to get one off you on payday this wednesday.

If its small enough, tighten the pinion with the motor out of the truck. It will allow you to torque down more. Otherwise, use an "L" wrench to get in there.

Yes, you are both R trying to get on my goat again...


Have a fun ride ....

No way Jose. I just want to see the 3/32" set screw on the pinion.

Remember, you brought it up smart guy!

used the 3/32 just yesterday , however, just checked and the 2m is the actual size bucky ...

just may depend on the brand pinion ?

Yaw Who , ride um ...

I drilled a small hole in the chassis directly under where the pinion set screw should be. I never have a problem. and befor that, I just used this:
