  1. Bashing
Was out bashing yesterday for about 30 minutes and then I was done. Today I noticed that the right rear wheel was sagging ALOT and so I took it off and found this:


Any reason behind it? I'm thinking it's shot but maybe I'll be able to save it. :shrug:

Have you take hits on the corner that one is mounted? I used to get that when I would land wrong...A LOT.
 
It looks to me that your pillow ball set screw is just loose, I put a little blue thread lock on mine adjusted them properly so they operated smoothly and let it sit over night and the kept them from comming loose...
 
It has taken hits on that corner quite a bit. I still suck at landing jumps.

I don't see a setscrew anywhere...?

Only the top one does it; the bottom one is quite snug.

yeah when you go off a jump dont hold the gas otherwise you will cartwheel
 
isnt there a thing youc an tighten up on the outside? on my revo there is, its under that blue dust cover and you have to use the tool they send with the truck to tighten it up. i didnt watch the video, but that sounds like the problem..

edit: i watched the video, its def the adjustment. tighten it up and you should be good to go.

I found that out a few minutes ago; believe it or not, a friend on my MMO told me about that. So yeah. Tightened it up and gonna put it all together tomorrow.

I actually decided to take the entire rear end off and pull it apart to clean everything since it's just gross. I got an exhaust deflector this past weekend [finally] so after that it should stay clean(er).

Yup wash off all that Frumunda cheese....use talcum power it helps on chaffing and slows the cheese growth. On another note good job on the fix.
 
Man, my belly button is so nasty, i found a carton of smokes, which i haven't bought in ten years, and a game of pong, in its original packaging. As if that wasn't bad enough, i found my first sub woofer that I got some 3o years ago.
 
Flanders...didn't you mention that the funny smell you had was just some dried Salmon you found in there from a fishing trip last spring?
