| loss of power
hey, I was wondering why my front axle was spinning slower than the front. Both of the seetings are on low but when i'm crawling the front wheels slow down and even stop while the back tires keep spinning. I already took the axle apart and didn't see anything obvious. I already searched for this problem and couldn't find anything. Thanks for the help, logan

Fireball I am not sure if you have the same problem I did, but it sounds similar. I followed the write up by getbent, link below, and repaired my front axle. When I was driving, the rig would just sit there when I attempted to climb a rock. Under full throttle and in low gear, if I picked the rig up and put one of spinning front tires against the palm of my hand, the wheels would stop spinning. If i switched the axle to high gear, it worked fine. I have not had a chance to test it on a real obstacle, but it climbs books in the house just fine. How to make your axles survive(step by step) Hope this helps. DB |
