Thanx guys! That has been takin care of due to the great, quick advice!
Then I found this:
I don't know if you can tell from the picture but it's a pin shaped slot in the gear. When the pin pulled halfway out and broke of it got in the mesh. Maybe still usable? It doesn't really matter if it is still usable or not, it was only $2.75 so I bought one...
More parts are one the way! Addicted? ...Nooo... lol Maybe but I just really set out to have a practical beater with super rare apperences at the track.
This MMM combo really makes life miserable for stock Traxxas parts. LOL Only about 30% of the steering componants are stock and most of the tranny. That is all that is left! ... And they are on the way out.
...And Neil the"joke in there somewhere" nearly had me rolling. LOL
