Default TMAXX 33 spur gear

Guys i keep ripping up my spur gear on my 3.3 tmaxx.. The fist time it happened it was because the engine mout hardwear backed off. So now i strip a gear almost ever time i go out. I have threadlocked all the hardwear and made sure the spur and the bell gear are tight...would anyone know why this keeps stripping.



Thanx TW

if this is the case than your spur and cb are too tight, back it off a bit.
also there is a paper methed:
roll a piece of notebook paper through the gears. it shouldn't be too tight and it shouldn't be too loose.(you still want it to crimp)
after i learned that i havent stripped a spur sence.
