help stripped reverse gear twice on the tmaxx - sperry007 - 10-08-2006 got a tmaxx 2.5 out of ebay and got it tuned and running (which was a real bitch compared to my savage.) i was making good runs then suddenly heard a stripping sound. wasn't sure if it was the slipper or the clutch so i :confused: checked. nothing, so tried running again and tmaxx just won't move no more. spur gear spinning and engine just reving. checked the tranny and there the reverse gear was stipped. had a spare tranny and popped in and it did it again. :mad: can anyone tell me what went wrong help stripped reverse gear twice on the tmaxx - dentguy92 - 10-08-2006 ya Its a t-maxx help stripped reverse gear twice on the tmaxx - sperry007 - 10-08-2006 twice? in a row? help stripped reverse gear twice on the tmaxx - MX_KEVIN - 10-08-2006 I would czech to make sure the reverse linkage isnt allowing reverse to engage while your running. help stripped reverse gear twice on the tmaxx - sperry007 - 10-08-2006 how do i do that? help stripped reverse gear twice on the tmaxx - MX_KEVIN - 10-08-2006 operate the reverse servo and watch it push/pull the plunger on the trans, adjust the collet on the linkage.
