It called "Clod Stall", most Clod based rigs suffer from it. Are you running the same pinions front and rear? I've found using a higher toothed pinion in front helps a little, 10t in front and 9t in the rear. Also adding weight to my front wheels helped some too. |

Iv got alot of weight on the front, most of everything is mounted towards the front. Thanks for that guys, i thought it wasn't a common problem ;) | |

Instead of making another topic, ill ask the question here. My clod has alloy knuckles up front, now, how the hell can i get the wheel nut off? Im running stock clod wheels and the nut sinks down so i cant get into where it sits, any help? |

| Hmm I always think of high gear as high gear reduction ratio...definitions! ...although when I do say gear up I mean to increase the speed lol. Definitions! I guess if you just think about it in terms of fractions then yeah my way is inconsistent and backwaards lol.
