    Blown 2nd Gear?

    So when I give my Tmaxx full throttle it shifts into second and then suddenly revs high lit the clutch bell is slipping, but the motor is tight and all.

    To me it sounds like 2nd gear is stripped. I'd pull the tranny and pull it apart to check the gears.

    Maybe the one way bearing can no longer handle the load?

    It is actually shifting into 2nd gear correct?

    Slipper is tight & in good shape?
    Look out for the tree/crunch!

    LiPo? Naw NITRO!!

    all the gears in the tranny were fine, i just had the wider gears on the middle shaft inbetween the input and output shafts facing towards the front on the trans instead of the back.
