Today just isn't my day

[Dawson]

Ok, I FINALLY got my truck to start, but guess what??

While breaking it in, I pushed the gas to hard (not all the way) and all of the sudden it stopped moving, but, the engine was just fine.

Seems now my back wheels won't spin at all, but the gear stuff spins, so something broke or something is loose.

Got any suggestions?

NOTE: I'm VERY new to this stuff (one day new actually), so talk to me like I'm in 1st grade (even though I'm 33 )

Dawson, What make and model is truck?? If a GT , XXX-NT , or the rear axel assembly is simular in desighn/Type......Your problem could simply be a broke/missing axel drive pin. Post truck make and model please. Ray

Hey man help us out and tell us what you did. That way if someone else comes along with that same issue we might be able to help them out also. X

You REALLY don't want to know

Ok, one tire wasn't screwed in tight enough

 

[Dawson]

Well, thankfully I didn't call a hobby shop to ask them, now I would have looked like a real moron then (ok, more than I already do)

It only took me about a half hour of sitting here, thinking what it could be, so I just checked to see if the tires were all tight and that was the problem

Just think of it like this,
You will never make that mistake again.
