Ok time to get serious!

**DiggerPede** · 10-13-2012, 03:14 PM

Hey Iceroad if you buy $40 worth of the bad horsie is the shipping any cheaper? I know it's free shipping if you spend $40 if I remember correctly for the US. At least you would get product for the $ worth. I highly doubt, maybe worth a shot.

It's always been free shipping no matter how many tubs you buy. Ten bucks.

Really? When I bought mine I swear that you had to spend a dollar amount to get it free. Bought mine earlier this year. Hmmmm....

EDIT: Oh shoot that was an upgrade to Priority Shipping. Could have been one of those days when I ordered it. LOL

Sorry about that, my bad!! Thanks for clarifying OG.

**Iceroad2** · 10-13-2012, 05:24 PM

Oh yeah priority shipping always gets ya!

Ok so my slipper clutch is needing a rebuild but I can't find a rebuild kit for the two wheel drive slash? Only four wheel drive. Should I just order the four wheel drive one?

**reod12x2** · 10-14-2012, 12:37 PM

no to my understanding the 4x4 uses the bigger asembily
i dont know the answer

You'll need the slipper pads and a new disc, which are common parts. Unless its warped, you can probably lightly sand the disc to renew it, but the pads tend to crumble as they age.

**Iceroad2** · 10-14-2012, 03:20 PM

Ok thx so I should order the rebuild kit and then use just certain parts of it?

I think the kit is you're only option, or at least its all my LHS carries. Be careful when you insert the pads, you can break 'em if you're too rough.

**lemansfanatic** · 10-15-2012, 07:10 PM

I think if you are due for a change, you might want to think about an upgrade slipper setup, I just put a new rebuild kit on mine and can't quite get it where I am happy with it. It might just be that it takes time to wear in, but I don't think the stock one offers enough fine-tuning anyways.

**Iceroad2** · 10-16-2012, 07:34 AM

Ok I am going to order a Robinson racing 14,15,16 piniones and I am also getting a jato 54 tooth plastic spur these are 32p

The 4x4 uses the same as the 2wd the revo and summit use the larger slipper.

**Iceroad2** · 10-30-2012, 06:10 PM

Ok it my stuff in the mail rebuilding the slipper as of now. I got a 14,15,16 piniones and two 54 tooth spur gears these are both 32p. So what gearing should I use? I run in grass, concrete, gravel, and pretty much everything so I need an all around gearing setup.

Depends on the climate your in below 50 I would say this is good all around getting to 80+ this might be a hair high. But since your iceroad2 I would hope for the cooler temps.

**Iceroad2** · 10-31-2012, 08:33 AM

Lol well it gets 38c I the summer and -40c in winter so idk really.

**bigdodge44150** · 10-31-2012, 10:02 AM

at -40c is there such a thing as gearing to high ?

**Iceroad2** · 10-31-2012, 05:01 PM

Haha idk. Ok I have a new problem, my pinion keeps coming off now... The grub screw keeps backing out and the. The gear slips in the shaft. I have tried nail polish but I think I am going to try blue loctite next..

Give it some time to set up... I use the red and never had a problem

**bigdodge44150** · 11-01-2012, 11:45 AM

I have three pinions that refuse to stay on I sometimes wonder if the threaded hole is off so that the edge of the set screw hits the shaft. Although with some super glue I was able to get one of them through one pack with some super glue just don't get it in the allen key hole.

**Iceroad2** · 11-05-2012, 05:07 PM

Ok guys I stripped my spur gear I need a metal one instead of plastic any suggestions?

**bigdodge44150** · 11-05-2012, 05:50 PM

go 32 pitch a metal one will be super loud.

**O.G.** · 11-05-2012, 05:55 PM

Did the bad horsie grease come in?

I like the sound if the 32p gears but haven't tried them in metal.

**Iceroad2** · 11-08-2012, 09:26 AM

Never ordered the grease because I got my other parts so I just threw my tranny together. Yea the 32p is nice. Seems louder though and also the whole stripping the spur didn't impress me much. Might just throw my old 48 p gears on and put on the gear cover.

Did I miss something, or did you strip the 32p gearing? I've never managed to do that before. Lol

**Iceroad2** · 11-10-2012, 10:34 AM

Yea I stripped the 32p

**Iceroad2** · 11-16-2012, 06:38 PM

I do that to. I've done it to my 4x4. I think he just had the mesh to tight. Thats what I did twice. I've never actually stripped a gear on my 2wd with 48 pitch. My friend has stripped one when I let him and I kinda stripped one since the motor was not in correctly ....

**Iceroad2** · 11-18-2012, 10:12 PM

I believe my gear mesh was too lose actually. I stripped two of them. Should I reorder plastic or look for metal?

**Iceroad2** · 11-20-2012, 08:13 AM

Bump? Please?

**jem450r** · 11-20-2012, 08:21 AM

I use plastic myself... Rather strip a plastic spur gear then transfer a bad load to my transmission...

**trashyrich** · 11-20-2012, 11:54 AM

I agree with jem450r, I read somewhere( maybe here) that the spur and pinion were designed to be made out of plastic so they would be damaged instead of being made out of metal and then the force would be transferred to inside the tranny and the damage would occur there.

**Iceroad2** · 11-20-2012, 05:22 PM

Ok do you what gearing do you recommend? I am thinking if reordering my gears. I have some major heat problems with my motor right now it seems to really heat up like crazy. Like in the snow if I through snow on it it instantly melts and makes steam!
