2. Check the starter shaft the bearing is riding on. Wear of only .001"can cause headaches.

3. The obvious have to ask question(same as Coby) Are you putting the bearing on the right direction?

yes the bearing is on the right way, i put calipars to the new bearing and old, turns out the stock bearing is NOT a (6x10x12) the internet lies the bearing actually measures (6.23x10.19x11.83) this is a major problem. so any body trying this be verry careful Now I have wraped up $50.00 just in a one way bearing by the time i go buy the $20.00 one from the hoby store

unless u have a suggestion on how i may be able it rigg the smaller ones i have, i thought about jb weld or something!!! any ideas i have 10 of them i would like to use


RACER!! this would have been good info to know a week ago
