| Need some parts help!!
Anybody in the Lehigh Valley (Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton, etc...) have a (12 or 13 or 14) tooth, 48 pitch gear and grub screw??? Went to do a motor upgrade to the Blazer, went to remove the old gear from the old motor and it wouldn't budge! I expected it to be be tight, maybe even have some loctite, but even after putting heat to it, it would not come loose. I'm trying to get this back together to make the EPARCC fun run on Sunday, and looking around on the internet, even with shipping charges, it may not get here on time (unless I want to pay 40-60 bucks shipping... F#@$ THAT!). Hobbytown in Whitehall is now closed, and I will not deal with TnL. ANY help would be appreciated! AND OF COURSE I WILL PAY FOR THE PARTS!!! THANKS!!! |

That's funny. I won't deal with Trains N Lanes either. When you go in there the guys act like you just interrupted their circle jerk and they don't want there. There's Modelbahn Ott's in Gilbertsville, but that's a decent ride for you. There's also J&D Whistle Stop in Quakertown. Those are the only other shops I can think of. RPP Hobby and Tower Hobbies have things to my house in 3 days so you could try that as well. |

J&D carries very few RC parts other than a few RTR's, he's mostly a train guy. Would call ahead before making a trip. There's another hobbytown just outside of Reading in the Shillington area. |

Thanks to everyone who offered support!!! I got it handled. Original motor went back in, but tin the process, I now found other things I need / would like to do. Hopefully I will see everyone Sunday! Just look for the lost guy, who isn't awake yet, who doesn't know where to park! |
