Took it out this morning to try it and stripped the spur. This spur was kinda messed up already so I'm going to try to pick up a new one sometime (cant this weekend though) and see if it works. Also, I put the chassis brace back on thinking maybe this could stop some flex if that is possibly the problem (haven't been jumping but I'm running out of ideas). Hopefully this will work but i'm kinda doubting it seeing how quick it stripped the spur this morning.
Does anyone else have any ideas? Possibly a steel spur?
Also, the little shaft that the wheel is bolted on to that comes out of the axel carrier (can't think of the name right now) snapped off leaving me with a 3-wheel revo  . I didn't even hit anything! I jumped off a curb at ~15-20 mph and my wheel just falls off. |
the shaft that you lost is called the axle stub, and instead of breaking you could have lost the pin that keeps the axle stub connected to the driveline, if it did break than you will need to replace the driveline
