Do your breaks lock up all 4 tires on your T maxx's cause mine dont but when my maxx was 2 wheel drive the breaks would lock up the 2 back tires I was just wondering if I have mine set correctly
 
do all your tires spin? Dou you have the tmaxx or the Smaxx? ALL FOUR TIRES should lock up when you hit the breaks. Check your drive lines. The center yokes and the front yokes.
 
Well you dont want to want your wheels to lock up when you are zooming by, That will distroy your (front) diff. What I would do is lift the back tires off the ground and roll your maxx back and forth get a feel for that then apply your brakes you should fell your car slow down alot. You could also just push your truck and then apply the brakes if it dont stop you have a problem it should stop within a second of you applying the brakes
 
I have the T maxx its I just put a new fiber disk and I was wondering if it needs to be worn in a bit cause it is brand new never used
