Yep you got it !! It Destroys Axial's reputation, bearings, plastic and aluminum housings and your FUN plus the Ebay account takes a pretty big hit to if you don't want to just look at it...or try to upgrade your way out of it...

I imagine this has probably cost you a few dollars, that stinks, I appreciate your efforts, without them I have no doubt it would have cost me more than the $50 it did. | |

and your right... looking at the were marks I figured it needed to go in ... but that's only possible by moving THE PINION OUT lol no wonder why Axial and some RRC members think I FN nuts...lol I'm am and it's all because of the HD gears lol BUT AFTER THE MOD A 6S BEAST |

| Re: Must watch video hd gear mod
Just got my first set of the HD gears in that I ordered, another set coming from axial once they're in stock.... Being new to the RC game I'm slightly confused about the shimming process. I know I want a tight (but not too tight) mesh with the ring and pinion. By removing the shoulder off the back of the teeth I assume you have to replace the extra space that creates with shims to tighten everything back up on the pinion assembly? And as far as the order of things: Pinion teeth > first bearing > necessary shims > spacer > bearing > C clip, correct? How do you guys check to see if the mesh is correct after doing the mod and everything? Thanks for any help, sorry if this doesn't make sense just trying to get some clarification before I tear the truck apart. This truck is so fun when it's running Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thanks 47yok! I'll give that a try for the mesh. As far as the order of bearings/spacer/shims did I have the right idea above? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

for example I installed the bulk head in this order bearing and in the rear (to help protect against grime before my driveshaft boot mod) bearing | |

Your is correct. What bhb says. Bearing first. I couldn't locate any shims online today. Avidrc is where I got bearings. They have shims but Not the right size. I put a note in to them to make a shim for this pinion. I have some clearance now but it's still better than out the box. Maybe next month I'll be more concerned if I decide to get the dhawk bulkhead. I have recently started thinking losi xxl brushless. |

I assumed you'd need quite a bit of shimming to "tighten" up the slack created from grinding off that shoulder between the teeth and the C clip? Or is not as important to keep the bearings and spaced from moving along the pinion slightly? Thank you both! I had the front drive shaft break (at the pinion, broke inside the joint) as well as broken teeth on the front spur and a blown up diff bearing. I have no idea what caused what but it was disappointing to see so much carnage so soon. This mod should definitely keep that from happening as often! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I'll check the depth differences with my dial indicator for accurate pinion depths...even tho this thing isn't a space shuttle | |

I removed to material the 2nd time I grinder on it. Not enough the first time. Still notchy. 2nd time a little to much. Now my pinion floats about 1.5 mm. I don't think it will be to bad. Maybe the bevel gears might break at some piont. But the heat caused from the friction before is gone. That makes it 100% better. Thanks bhb!! |

just having fun.. no harm meant ...It was going along with what you said.. (and poking fun at my self for breaking out the dial indicators.) Remember that I've had my mod ridiculed ...when I was just trying to help...that tends to hit a nerve..especially when I don't deserve it.. like 47OK just messaged me saying that he's figured out the REAL problem...But far as I know I'm came up with the mod and I've also had almost 60 6s runs for testing for you guys...ALWAYS willing to listen but think it out first..
