No problem dude, I thank you for watching and commenting 🤜💥🤛 I can say that these gears are pretty well made. I spent a good portion of my life working on winches of sailing boats, and putting too much grease is never a good thing all you want to do is take away the friction. But I will tell you that I had to open up the gearbox again to put more grease as they were very noisy.

@@JUSTHAVEFUNRC Are they low range gears. If so that would be normal because with low range gears the reduction is so low it’s like using full throttle with the trail gears. Just a little throttle gets those low range gears moving fast.When you go full throttle with tail gears you’ll hear the whine also. A smooth gear noise is fine and that’s normal but if it sounds like ratchety like there’s some dirt in the tranny something is wrong. Maybe miss aligned gears or bad gear molding.

It will be a little quieter if you got an aluminum transmission housing and just wiped some grease on the inside of the case to help dampen the sound. Should quiet up a bit after running them for awhile too.

Hi! just subbed to your channel. I have some upgrades from Injora coming for my defender trx4m and one of them is the low metal reduction set and this video will be very helpful in the assembly process. Just one quick question , what kind of grease do you use on them and what do you recommend? I read on comments high viscosity high temperature Grease but was wondering if you can recommend me a good grease.

@rcfungames

Жыл бұрын

First of all thank you very much for the support and subscribing to my channel 🤜💥🤛 I really appreciate it 😊 In my opinion definitely one of the best upgrades for the Traxxas TRX4M is the reduction gear set! I'm not using anything specific I am just using high temperature grease that I had lying around from working on my real cars. So far it has done a great job on the RC crawlers It stays in place and provides the lubrication that is needed and it doesn't have too much viscosity to cause extra load on the system. I am using a Lucas high temperature Grease. If you're going to be running in water I've also had no problems with this grease mixing with the water and haven't found any water in any of my axles or gearboxes So so far I am more than happy with it. You could also just run a waterproof grease from Lucas I'm sure that would work perfectly fine too. As a person doesn't spend much time with the throttle flat out so there is not really that much heat to worry about! Wish you the best of luck with your build, anything I can help with just let me know 👊😉

You could probably install the pinion using a metal bench vice. Gently and slowly press it on, being careful not to damage the capacitors. Only issue I see is how to get it off again if you ever need to maintenance the motor or change gears again. Seems like a once and done scenario. Also, I think I'd pool a bit more grease in the bottom of the case, that could continually cycle and freshen the lubrication. But these are not high speed cars, and probably won't have a lot of mileage compared to racers, so maybe it's not needed.

@rcfungames

11 ай бұрын

I installed the pinion gear with a pair of pliers and had absolutely no problems, now removing it is definitely not going to be an easy task without pinion remover! About the application of the Grease all I can say is I went on two different courses on how to maintain electric and normal winches on sailing boats and I was taught to never put too much grease as all it does is cause restriction. If they are going to be running for a long time on the lots of pressure then more grease of course he's going to be beneficial. But for the speeds we are running on these little cars a thin layer is more than enough. I did recently open it up and put more grease in when I replaced the gearbox housing from plastic to aluminum. But still didn't overdo it. Really appreciate you watching and commenting

As you know, I do these videos for content for my KZread channel, but I would not have changed my gears because I had had no trouble with them and they were nice and quiet when running . I also put in the metal gears for the fact that this little thing weighs more than 1.2 kg Next, I will be trying one of the 45 ton motors and a brushless set up for the other one to see what I prefer .

I'm sorry to hear that I've had a few people tell me now they've been the motor shop trying to install the metal pinion gear. I didn't have too much trouble but then I am very used to working on the mechanical stuff as I've been doing it my whole life. I use the bent nose pliers to get an even and straight push on the pinion gear to get it on. On the back side of the motor I put a small piece of paper between the pliers and place the pliers on the back end of the shaft so I could push it down straight and only apply force directly down on the shaft without pushing the shaft through the motor or bending it. If it does not want to go on smoothly take a piece of sandpaper and just send the tip of the motor shaft at tiny bit just to make it slide on a bit easier

Hi Ryan, on my TRX 4M bronco yesterday I added the injora motor as well as Traxxas metal gears for front and rear Differential, I even put white lithium grease in the gears front and back, as well as the transmission gearbox. But for some reason, I am getting the front wheels that are kind of like the best way I can describe it sputtering any suggestion, and what may be the cause of this? I also have the metal injora Drive shaft.

@rcfungames

Жыл бұрын

Hi bro, this could be a bit difficult but I did notice after fitting metal gears and everything that they definitely have a little bit more play between the teeth then the plastic gears. But to try and narrow down where the issue is coming from, take the drivelines off from your diffs and check if it's coming from the gearbox, if the gearbox runs smoothly with no sputtering it's further forward. Then check the axles by turning them with your fingers and checking if they have a smooth action, if you can feel any tight spots, if you don't notice anything in the gearbox and the axle then it could be the angles from your axle to the gearbox on the driveline that is causing the sputtering. So start with the gearbox and remove the drivelines completely and check if it's running nice and smoothly. Try these few steps and see if you can figure out exactly where it's coming from then let me know so we can see what we can do. 😉👍
