this has happend with BOTH of my emaxxes but this one is a little different. When i give it gas my motors an spur spin as well as the driveshafts. but the wheels are spuinning ULTA slow even at WOT. does this mean i need to fricken rebuild my diffs?

Might be the shafts to the diffs that went bad.

Can you hear a mechinical incorrect noise?

HotnCold · 03.18.2006, 01:37 PM

check the hexes ( in the rims ) and the pins in the hexes - something to check ...

It sounds like a problem. Does the drive shafts spin real fast? Is the slipper to loose or burnt out to?

Most probably a drive pin missing from either the hexes or from the cvd's. Could also be sheared screws in the diff.

Maybe the trannys pin snapped off a couple of places to check .

okay so i checked the grub screws on the center shafts. and everything seems to be working. I was driving with stock everything except 14 cells and than it started slipping. and now it wont move at all. this EXACT thinghappend to both of my emaxxes. Someone PLEase tell me what the heck is going on

It will move under it's own power. It is not as fast as it should be. Is the wheel drive working? If you pic it up and try to turn the front wheel while back is on the ground what happens? How tight and what kind of slipper are you running?

i am running a mod1 setp on it wtih a 7xl.
well my front left wheel spins and NOTHING happens when i spin it. when i spin my front right one my two front wheels spin and it spins SUPER easy. and now it wont move at all when it is on the ground

When you spin the wheel does the axles turn. check the hexes to. You may have busted the diff gears.

toby · 03.18.2006, 07:59 PM

it has the 8 spider so i doubt that. this happend when i was runnign stock everything to. I put my front wheels on the ground and spu nthe rear wheels. my right rear wheel does nothing just liekthe front left and when i spin the other it spins with no force of it trying to move forwards

coolhandcountry · 03.18.2006, 08:09 PM

Did the cvd move or spin? What about the center shafts? Did you take the wheels off to check hexes? Check your pins for cvds as well.

toby · 03.18.2006, 08:11 PM

I will check the hexes. this is really enraging me. What can i do to make my transmission bullet proof?

toby · 03.18.2006, 08:17 PM

i need some fricken help locally with this but my LHS owner is a dink and charges to much. and i am getting pissed cause all my dawmn RC's are broken and i don't even get to fricken drive them.

Sylvester · 03.18.2006, 08:25 PM

Chill out , take apart your tranny, and please post back. If there is a problem, it could be your idler gears, so just check the tranny.
