E-savage ?

[rchippie]

Im fixing a e-savage for a buddy in the local boat club. He said it wont go. It sounds to me like the RR diff is blown, but i have'nt torn it apart yet to see. Is there a common problem with the the diffs or tranny to look for on these before i tear it apart ?. Thank's

E-savage diffs is very weak and don't need allot of abuse to die. Check out this site for some serious upgraded diff for the e-savage.

Talk to Chris I'm sure he will sort you out with what you need.

E- Savages have a tendancy to chew diffs, snap the sliders (Axles) and have spur gear issues. (Slipper loosens, melts spur)

Also not uncommon to have a very distinct clicking noise from the centre transmission, usually doesn't create a breakage hassle though

It has the clicking sound . but to me it sounds like it is in the RR diff. I held both FR whhels the applied pressure to both RR wheels, & i heard the clicking sound. When i reveresd things & held the RR wheels & applied pressure to the FR wheels . There was no clicking sound. So thats why i think it is the RR diff.
