I just got done replacing bulkheads, skid plate, shocks,and shock tower after a run in with a school bus tire at full throttle.

Now my truck won't free roll when off. If I pick it up the tires will spin. I haven't had the truck out yet but I thought it was suppose to free roll. What should I check?

Also does anyone know where I can get a carb return spring. I think mine is shot.

Thank you.
 
Yeah, come to find out they don't budge..lol

I lost radio contact and it shot right into it. Needless to say I have a failsafe now.

As for the carb spring...

My carb doesn't really stick(just rebuilt it) Its just it won't shut that last 1/8" without tapping it. I am only assuming it is the spring. Any other ideas? I already rotated the carb to no avail.
 
Make sure the grub screw that holds the spring is pulling on the spring, enough for it to close the carb
 
Ok I figured out my problem...I installed the front diff backwards:angry:
Time to tear it all back down again.

Where is this grub screw you speak of the spring threaded on to the body I don't remember a screw
 
My spring hooks onto the tranny then to the throtle rod and on the rod there is a grub screw that keeps the spring taut. I have the new tmaxx 3.3 (4908)
