I thought this was going to happen........I have the hr steel gear set to put into the tranny as well as a slipper clutch(mainly for my daughter) especially when I put the holmes 35t in. The driving in this vid sucks ass, forgot how to drive a shafty guess I gotta put equal time into both again

| Yeah definitely wasn't the "happy ending" I was looking for but I gave her a good rub down last night haha I can't help but burst out laughing when that sound goes off, it just sounds almost dubbed in.......SNAP I wasn't laughing when it happened but I was previewing it in the living room while my wife was sitting beside me when I broke out in laughter. She looked at me like "your an idiot" hahaha it is just too comical, that sound it made when half the teeth stripped off the idler gear, that was like the loudest snap I have ever heard come from any of my crawlers. Anyways, looking forward to seeing some more of your build when funds allow, it must be rough waiting to get it up and running |

| Hey Highlucks, can you do me a favor and post up your suspension and link geometry settings on your rig in my thread, I'm going through some issues with that we are discussing a bit atm, your rig seems pretty dialed and I'd love to hear your input having owned this chassis setup. Thanks man, links in the sig if you have time or can even post up some close up pictures of your setup. Kurt

| It's sucks wen your out there and it happens, I was on top of it with my xr and put the rc4wd gears in right out of the box, best move ever. I still laugh my ass off when I think of that snap sound |

| Thx man, I thought it would be a nice change from the usual metal I put on my vids!. It's a piss off that my rc4wd xvd's were no good cause this probably wouldn't have happened, the stockers just couldn't handle the weight of that fall to just that one wheel at the end of the vid. I'm really happy with the performance of it aside from a couple little kinks that need to be fixed but it will be all good in a week when my replacment shaft shows up along with my 35t motor and I get that fxr in it, will free up my suspension quite a bit in front and I gotta lighten up on the rear springs. Good thing this is my "daughters" rig and I have my bombproof xr to work with cause I can't seem to keep this thing together.

Great videos, the snap caught on camera is a first for me. Your driving really well in the second video and the rig looked great.
