ok put something in the hole on the shaft on this part that is circled to stop the spur gear from turning then you should be able to just turn the spur gear by hand and it will turn with out the slipper clutch turning with it

i have it so it is just a little hard to turn.

I sware !!!!!!!!!!! I FINALLY got my truck together after being down for 2 weeks and guess what... I BROKE ANOTHER FREAKIN' PART !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I had just got my spur gear

changed,my slipper clutch rebuilt, my new pipe on, my new tires and wheels on and of course I put my OWB on backward ARGH!!!. Then Im halfway thru a tank and slid into a curb!


Next thing I know I cant hardly turn right. This wouldnt be so bad if I had a LHS. Im gonna post the damage.



Im starting to understand all the *****in about tuning this 3.3. Its starting to be a pain! It seems to take me a tank of fuel to get it to shift to second.

All good though, I love to work on my truck, but DANG its good to have some run time.



Oh yea, I got the tires/wheels @ towerhobbies.
