That's a sweet clutch. Any shots of the brake? I've got mine rigged to a 3-position switch (I love my R-1 ) so I can select drive, freewheel or brake for the rear axle. My brake is a rod and a 90 degree bellcrank. The bellcrank butts against a tire. It's not a hard brake (the truck can pull against it) but it's enough to hold it on a hill. Bend up the end of the rod so it doesn't poke through the sidewall. There's a pic in miniwheeler's thread. |

| Darn good thing that you have that fan on the slipper. They get way to hot after they are locked. You better have that down at the shop tommorow so that I can check it out. |

It's just kinda funny, you post about the dig thing and every one is more interested in the TZ original goofy placed fan. |

yes it was made from 1"x2"x1/4" alum. Solder holds the bearing. The brass tube is crimped on both ends to hold the female shaft.
