Default Help with build?

Hey guys....Im having trouble with the gears of this creeper.

The are PRETTY HARD to turn them. Is that normal? They are greased plenty and seemed to be turning fine before I closed the box.

I would open it back up but a few of the hexes are stripped.

Any help?

The gears are hard to turn by hand but once you get a motor on it they'll turn just fine under power i had the same concern don't worry

diffence is the axial tranny has 3 gears inside. The venom trans has like 10. All that mesh is gonna make it hard to turn by hand by the output shaft. Stick a driveshaft on it and then turn it. It should move easier then cause you'll have more to grab on to.
