damaged wheel bearings
I started to notice that the front wheels dont spin free, disassembled and all the wheel bearing are gone.
the crush tube between the bearings was smashed... and the roll pins are bent also, i think this was the problem... What roll pins are u using ? Had this happened to someone ?? |

the crush tube is just a spacer it should not crush?

i think beeing smashed is a signal that i´m tightning the wheel too much, maybe because the roll pins are bending?
Anyone with this problem? |

I use solid drive pins from Nortech racing instead of roll pins all round the car. You need to make sure that the rear is shimmed properly at the rear to avoid bending the pin when tightening the wheel nut.

I have replaced every single ballbearing in my ride since one broke down on the first testrun. And there were no crashes or other incidents. No jumping or what not. Just tried it out on the street. Bad luck I thought and bought a new one. Then I noticed that one of the diff bearings also was bad. I ordered a complete set of bocca bearings instead and replaced all of them. When I did so one of the spurgears bearings fell apart in the process!!!
The boccas seems to do the job but I was not that impressed with the quality as I were when building it. Rest of the car is just ace. Guess I got a bad batch of bearings. These new ones does not spew grease all over the car anyway. |

I have found the same thing and use Answer RC 5x 10 x 4 bearings for the wheels and also bought some bearings for a Kyosho ZX5 which happens to have all of the different bearings that the Durnago uses from Wallawalla store on ebay.

steel ones
New Steel Spacers are on the way soon I have been informed.
Which should eliminate any bearing Pin Issues. I recently replaced mine and also inserted a steel ic clutch shim. It seams to have done the job for now as no failures on Sunday ! cant wait for the steely ones
