what causes these things to stip ? I've had mine a week. it has been fine untill just now.. i turned, and when i accelerated, it just wined. and i looked and the teeth on my gear are flattend.. and missing in some spots.
 
ur engine mount screws could of came loose or the screws that hold the enigne to the engine mount. thats most likely what happened. clean the threads off then use some loctite. either that or ur chassis might of flexed, but i doubt that going around a corner.

later
 
put my new spur gear on and all was well.. for a minute.... then i bent front passengerside shock on something that was lurking in the tall grass.. put a good 15degree bend in it.. so i put it in the vice, and straigtened it out.. all is well now. I'm giong to make a wider bumper that protects my shocks now..
