Motor scream

[xmodmaverick]

Ok, so I'm dropping all the chassis info into the Tc I'm transforming into a drifter. Well, I successfully added susp and steering, awd, and a S2. Well, I set it down to test it all out, to make sure that bit was in right. I can drive straight just fine, but when i hit the reverse, the gears scream as they are being stripped. I tried a different axle length on the awd, I tried a different gearing setup, I oiled the gears, added screws, tightened them up, I did it ALL! and yet it still screams like a baby who just got a cut. I tried my locked diff, didn't work either. Someone please help me with this! It's serously holding me up, and I race my best friends gen 1 fully hopped up camaro next week in Jackson Ms, not my hometown of biloxi. HELP!!!

Try not to go in reverse lol. Tell me it is a Evo. Your gears are not meshed properly. You might have a wrong motor spacer, broken spacer or even missing a spacer. Check to see if you have a spacer,

I agree with him, possibly wrong engine spacer. look at the back of the s2 box and make sure the correct spacer is in there.

just like they have said before it smore then likley the motor spacer but im also going to say that you need to put a spacer on the little red gear that you added in the car for awd to push it to one side abit more so that it mesh's better if a pic is needed i can get a pic up a little later for you

[darkendblades]

[123Vette]

it happens to my trucks so thats y i said that never to my cars

[darkendblades]

oh yeah i understand that completely it happens to my hummer all the time so i put a metal spacer inbetween the big red gear you put in the rear of the chassie for awd and it works like a champ now it ran with out it for about a year lol it screwed up so much stuff lol

YOu mean the little small bushings?

OH, and i checked my gears and spacers and all, the only thing is is that I forgot one of the bushings to the AWD. I rhink, like said above, is the problem.

i think there is a thing where u use a hole puncher and punch a hole from carboard, that that little cardboard circle and make a hole in it and put in inbetween the gear for the 4wd and the little grey thingy

[xmodmaverick]

Yeah, cuz i checked my parts box, and i lost the other bushing, I only have one. I may try that.

ok yeah just like that but make sure you have both the grey colord spacers on it then put another small spacer i used a metal one i found and you can also use a gen1 yellow stock plastice bearing just sand it down alot and it should work the same way

[Ok, thanks, I'l try it.

[darkendblades]

ill be back at my house later today ill take some pics of what i did to my hummer

[xmodmaverick]

FIXED! It was that I was missing one of the bushings to the AWD kit, I took one of the old gen 1 yellow bushings and used that, fit like a charm.
