Default changing gears in the T-34

Can somebody tell me how to change the gears out in the trumpter WSN T34?

It appears the engine cover is easy to remove but I could not get the gear and the sprocket removed..


How does this come part?

OK remove that nut in the upper left corner.
That nut is connected to this screw on the other side. bottom right
Now remove this srew from the back side of the drive housing.
wiggle them lose and there you have it.
Now you can break down the whole gear unit.
remove the front of the wheel by taking the 3 screws on the back side out.
remove this brass collar CAREFULLY and the unit will pull apart
when you are all done this is what you will have
Hope this all helps you. Anthony

What gears have you ordered? I wasn't aware any were available. Are you sure it's not the clutches inside slipping?

metal gears and mine were wobbling very badly on the shaft causing it to slip.. I took it apart and watched the gearset has I placed a load on them.. it was not a pretty sight and I am glad they are being replaced now. maybe once the gears have been replaced I can replace the tracks with metal ones as well.

I lost a wheel cover..does anybody make a replacement?(front wheel)

What do you mean the little cover that goes over the screw? Ask Mato he will most likly give it to you FREE. If he don't have one let me know I can get you one.
