I've lost some parts on the rear center drive line and my t maxx is now fwd (temporarily) is it ok to run like this?
 
I wouldnt because it is putting a lot more strain on the front diff, with the full power of the motor going to the front wheels. just my opinion.
 
heck yes, nothing better than a fwd rig. they slide around like no other on wet pavement.



I personally would run it. If your front diff can't hang then it needs to be replaced anyway. :)
 
You will be surprised how useless it is with only FWD. The fronts don't drag the truck nearly as a good as the rears do on their own to push it. I ran my maxx RWD only for about a year at the end of my maxx days. Got tired of keeping up with the diffs, so I figured I only burn one up at a time running 2wd. Was a bit squirrely on the loose stuff, but it still got around pretty good.
