Hello, does anyone know the best and quickest way of disengaging the transmission on an scx10 so it can be towed? Thanks for any info. |

Pull the rear driveshaft at the axle if you're lifting the front to tow or pull both drivehsafts at the axle if you're pulling with all four wheels on the ground. Put the driveshaft halves in the tow vehicle or in the back of the one being towed.

Remove your pinion gear. You'll still have the drag of the drive train, but its better than removing driveshafts. IMO

| Re: towing No need to tear into a axle to free wheel it, its 100x easer to pull the pin out of the drive shaft at the axle side and pull it off and tie it to. The frame and off you go, no there is no easy way to disengage the drivetrain , unless you get a wraith transmission, even then you can only disengage either the front or rear can do both at the same time.

Trailer it bud Because not only will you have to disengage the shafts but also the drag link on servo. |
