What motor are you running, what are the grip levels like?

I was running a 5.5 in mine and I found slowing the car down to a 6.5 or 7.5 helped me with the rear belt. Also make sure your slipper is adjusted properly.

Setting the slipper correctly i critical. Take a look at this link:http://www.rctech.net/forum/electric...forum-167.html and scroll down to Dynodans post.

The bearing block for the rear diff is a belt tensioner, you should have two sets of bearing blocks with A and B on them.

A - with arrow pointing back - rear belt tightest
B - with arrow pointing back - rear belt tight
B - with arrow pointing forward - rear belt loose
A - with arrow pointing forward - rear belt loosest

I run my xx4 with the belt tight, B blocks with arrow pointing back.

Try changing the diff and centre pulleys when you fit a new belt.
