Spur Gear Replacement Question

[jammer]

Hey all,

well it had to happen at some point didn't it ... ?

I've totalled my first spur gear.

I've got a replacement (i'm sticking with the 52 tooth plastic one for now) and I'm going to install it this weekend. Question is, what do you guys recommend for sticking the slipper clutch pad to the spur?

super glue?


cheers,

Should be self sticking but you have me wondering now.

I just replaced my spur gear and installed a new slipper pad. It's got tape on the one side of it. You shouldn't need to use anything else.

Thats right, I've never had it come off yet.

IMO.....The integy spur gear suck big time. I have broken 3 of them. If you want a metal gear then I would recomend the HPI steel upgrade or one made from GH hobbies. They are strong as heck and don't break. Some like robinson racing but I have broken them too and I cant see spending the money on it.

i run an hpi steel and a hot racing steel both have at least 10-154 gal on them and just now need replaved due to bad landings and normal wear.
