Question Help ME on my MRC please!! NEWBIE

Hi im new to the crawler seen been working on a scaler.
Well my question is i ran my crawler through some really thick mud (like a dumbass!!) and well now my left rear tire gets all the power in the rear instead of both getting same amount. What could be the problem? thank you!!

you need aluminum lockers from RCBROS.com that should fix your problem

Pull the rear axle apart first and make sure the heads of the diff screws weren't snapped off also. You need a 1.5mm and 2mm allen wrench and a 7mm socket(the largest one on the 4 way) to pull it apart.

The stock lockers are just not worth it....IMO . Can't go wrong with RCBros' lockers

If you haven't taken it apart it could also be the axle shaft, but I would go ahead and upgrade to RcBros metal lockers

I broke both front and rear lockers on mine (the stock one's are junk), and my wheels did the same thing. Losi makes a metal locker upgrade, I replaced mine with them and so far I haven't been able to break them.

They're not expensive. $10-12/axle. If money is tight, do the front/rear, first, the center, later.
I went with the RCBros front/year lockers.

That's the thing that you have to lear about plastic and that is when tight is tight.
