E-revo problem - 01.09.2010, 10:50 AM

Hey guys..

I just bought an used e-revo, but now, after clean it a litle bit, I noticed that when the motor spins, each differential spins the wheels in opposite directions..

I mean... if the front wheels spins to the front, the rear one will be spinning to the rear..

I'm a noob, but I'd like to know where is tho problem, so i dont need to diassemble it completly... Any Idea?

PS. sorry about the bat english, but i'm Portuguese...

Thanks

+1 on this.

I have found the rear end to be the simple end to work on. If you take apart the rear, you don't have to deal with the steering.

I aggree. One of the diffs is upside down.

Driveshaft rotation has nothing to do with it.

Your truck was taken apart before........and one of the diffs was installed upside down.

This will make the front wheels spin the opposite direction as the rear wheels do.

To fix this, you have to take one of the diffs out, flip it, then put the truck back together again.

Yeah, but doesn't matter if they both get assembled upside down?

Ok. Thanks to everybody.

I changed from savage to e-revo, but the mechanical of e-revo is VERY different..

On the diff case I painted small arrows so I knew which one was in what direction. Made the same mistake several times before marking the cases

2. MBX-5T 1520, MMM ON 5S
