| I still can't believe it!!!!
I thought that my pulley's set screw had come loose and it was simply rotating around the top shaft of my TLT, and thats why I wasn't getting motor power to the axles... boy was I wrong, and baffled: I thought that the belt should strip before the pulley disintegrates! Thats an HPI Nitro belt, and it has NO damage to it, but the pulley is completely destroyed. Where there are no teeth it is super smooth. Turns out one of my bearings seized which was intermitently seizing the topshaft/pulley... but even with that, I can't believe the pulley disintegrated the way it did! |

I just found a 16t aluminum tamiya pulley on tower. Most of the HPI ones are on way pulleys... Finding all the weak parts of this truck is driving me nuts!

I am using a matrix 27 turn motor (stock 540), with a 12t pinion and 90t spur.
