LRP .28 Bearings

[brandon13]

Does anyone know of some clutch bell bearings that withstand the power of the engine? I'm using the traxxas ones right now and we race every week and I have to replace them after every night of racing

What rig?

traxxas revo

Werks Racing makes a 4-shoe clutch for the Revo that is much better than stock.

I run standard 5x10 bearings, but I run a 1/8th scale bell/flywheel/shoes with alloy shoes. Sounds like your shimming too tight or are getting a lot of clutch slip causing excess heat that's boiling the oil out of the bearings.

I replace my bearings less than once a gallon.

right now I have a M2C 3 shoe alloy clutch and robinson racing gear set

Then maybe just bad shimming causing excess side load on the bearings making them fail.
