Scragged means jacked up!lol But anywho,I took about a 5 foot jump to a concrete floor on the front wheels and bent the bearings and stripped the servo.. I'll post a pic when I tear the rig down..
All that was devided up between 4 courses,I had one course I didnt mess something up on..lol

yah so I decided to break my rig down and clean it up so I could try out some new lube options on the worms gears.
After busting the axles down I found this..
Funny thing is the axles was still working..Had a funny wobble to it though..So now I am waiting for a new worm to show up.
Look for a full post on the new lube I am using for my axles,Will get rid of the usual flung MESS losi axles make outta grease.
Here a couple pics from MWC!!
Hardly anyone made this gate!!
Broken Damn...
Me and the Homies!!
