As bluest said "once you want to get competitive go ahead and put those in" so I irdered them and will hold on to them until they are needed. Great info on here keep up the good work!

One may have been a defect because the gear spit in half. The other happened because the screw that holds the small gear on backed out. I would say that the best mesh is when there is zero slack, but the gear can spin freely and feels smooth.RexRacer19https://www.blogger.com/profile/10050764963091967526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939381521806735850.post-86153181663662921552015-03-09T15:40:42.233-04:002015-03-09T15:40:42.233-04:00I did the gear change on my chassis and it was ama...I did the gear change on my chassis and it was amazing. It ran well until last night when I heard the diff skip teeth when grabbing brake and then stripped half the gear once back on throttle. New gears on order but I was wondering if I should shim exactly as you have it to prevent stripping? The difference was for my install I didn't have slack with gears inside the diff when I was installing so I'm worried it will be too tight with shims? I only used shims right behind the joint cup to the driveshaft but I'm thinking it found slack and that's why it blew last night.

For me it was cheaper to change gears than buy a new motor.RexRacer19https://www.blogger.com/profile/10050764963091967526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939381521806735850.post-16264030067723490152015-03-07T20:11:55.539-05:002015-03-07T20:11:55.539-05:00Did you try a faster turn motor?
