Default Clicking While Turning and Turning the Rear Tires Forward (Solved)

So I've had some annoying clicking when driving and turning, also if I rotate the rear tires forward by hand. I searched and found where someone posted the same thing and it was mentioned that under power the center shafts should pull out on the pinion gears. I don't see how this is even possible with there being a sliding shaft in the middle. I ended up digging through my old Traxxas parts and found some diff shims. I put one between the center shaft and outer diff bearing on both axles and the clicking is completely gone.

I thought the same thing but since the Capra has spiral cut gears, it's possible for this (clicking noise) to happen. The shim solved my problem too a couple months back. The good thing about this is this got me to start gathering a collection of shims to have around which has already come in handy.

I kept all of my old Revo parts and found a bunch of Traxxas, HPI and Robinson Racing shims, I'm glad I kept them now.
