 |
|
Took my Savage out at lunch to run with my boss who has a XL, 10 minutes into it my rear wheels wouldnt spin.
All axels are in place including centers, if I hold one back wheel and spin the other there is a clicking noise..
So I ask you, is it diffs?
I wont get to look at now till after work, but any input would be great!!
And by the way, the 25 blew away the XL.....haha! |

| Yes, the diff. Probably the 13th pinion gear. Tune it. You should have no trouble against a .25. |

95% of the time, a " 2 wheel drive" post is gonna be set screw in the drive cup. Thats what I thought before reading your post, but then you used the word "clicking" this made everyone go towards the diff, because that is a tell tale sign of a blown diff.
glad you figured it out.  |
