If all that is good, you may have stripped the idler gears in the tranny. I've had to replace mine a couple times. Last edited by BENDER; 03-07-2005 at 11:59 AM. | |

| loud is fairly normal, if you're talking about gear noise. clanky? could be a bad bearing, or just the normal slop in the selector mechanism. tear it down and have a look-see. there's only 7 moving parts in there. |

| Even if it's locked in 1st you'll still notice a bit of slop which can cause a small amount of "clunking" sound. Best way to solve it is to kill off the slop. Any of the RCRG rigs that run a Maxx tranny have had the trannys "fixed" to have ZERO slop. It's tighter than a TXT tranny as far as amount of slop. |

| So how do you "fix" the slop then? |
