Default Trx 3.3 clutch bearings

Well i have had my revo #5308 for awhile. I have run about 2 1/2 gallons threw her and i have gone threw 2 sets of clutch bearings?? The one set where savage bearings and i thought those where Hd. How long should clutch bearings last in a Trx 3.3?

Default RE: Trx 3.3 clutch bearings

I don't know about the 3.3, but I have an OS18TM in my 2.5 Revo chassis. I'm running bearings in my clutchbell that were on the original engine. The only time I've had to replace them is in the smallest clutch bell because I run it in the snow and the front one started to get rough. The only other time was when that same bearing fell out because the E-clip gave out and fell off while running. Sounds like something else is causing the bearing failures that you are talking about.

if you have a worn clutchbell or your mesh is off just a hair it will burn up bearings pretty quikly.....try some bearing lube under the races before installing the next set.
