| Tech question...
Just picked up brushless MRC in trade...It was working good, but after a couple runs I found I am not getting power from the rear wheels. If I have the rig off the ground they seem to move fine, but when crawling up hill only the front is pulling. I can stop the rear wheels easliy with 1 finger? Any ideas?

Probably a broken stock plastic locker. Tear open the axle and check it out...

or the center locker (gear box) or the set screws in the driveline |

Seems to be in the transmission. I checked the set screw first, I can hold the rear driveshaft with the same result.

What a weak design...the rectangle shaped wedge where the metal shafts go into the main gear for the rear shaft is now rounded.

Without weak designs, there would be no need for aftermarket or replacement parts.......
