well my reverse wasn't kicking in. Had my suspisions that it was a blown gear. Then I pulled it apart and guess what I found? A blown gear. Now I have to wait because the hobby shop doesn't carry the part. Ho hum. My savage will be in pieces for at least a week...maybe two :(
 
Well i've decided to just pull the module out but can't find a bearing...but it'll turn up somewhere
 
One more reason not to use the reverse module.
 
Actually it was right there....lol...ho hum. I'm still putting the truck back together. Some more thing that went wrong...some screws were lost and the engine got a little loose and my spur gear is slightly torn up. The one-way on the 8 port is almost toast. But everything will be fixed except for the gear on the reverse module. It's all good though cuz it's still able to be run. But I like reverse cuz I get into all kinds of trouble and need reverse.
 
Amen bro, I hope ya get it fixed soon.

Damn, was that a :spam post?

Oh yeah Sky, you thought that reverse module was pretty damn cool when I went over that ramp backwards last weekend. Too bad we didn't get it on tape.
 
It's all back together but i'm having idling problems with the 8 port right now. But it's too blood hot to stay outside for too long. We're on another heat wave right now...lol

I did get it on tape, and I did think it was cool. Doesn't mean I want it on my truck.
 
No, you got it on tape!!!!! Is it gonna be in your vid? Run the clip backwards so it looks like the truck just hops over the jump.. That would look so cool...
 
Another casualty. When running, the brake rotor split so I had no brakes. Bought a new one and then the hex part of the rotor stripped oh and right before that, the black part of the rotor kinda peeled off...so now i'm gonna get the HB brake kit. Replace what breaks with aftermarket
 
What Happened to Owning us all with your superiour skills :jester: I guess you cars can't even handle your skills :D Hope you get everything fixed so you can once again own us all.
 
Yup, been there, seen that. I'm a rank novice compared to Pirata.

He was referring to Kwong...owner of nothing he surveys :D

As for you being the Master of Disaster, no one will ever be able to contest that title. You have earned it well.
