I'd like to know what tool to use to remove the pinion thingy. I've got a tank turning right again and I'm sure its one of the motors on the 5/1 gears..I haven't removed one of these motors before it looks like it needs a special tool.
Cheers
Jake

Re: Gears
Jake, Waltersons provide the complete package including spare gears and pinions along with the Puller and a choice of tools to remove as well as to install pinions and gears, I have no idea if they are sold separately but the Waltersons Brass Gearboxes have all this included as well as a flask of gear oil.

Re: Gears
Cheers Shaun, I had a look on their website..not much on there! I have a feeling you have to purchase a set of gears to get the puller.

Re: Gears

Re: Gears
Loads of options here on Ebay under 'pinion remover' search term. Would have posted the direct link, but it's about as long as 'War and Peace'.
Our trusty Max-U52 posted a video here some time ago on gear removal with an improvised tool. However, I bought a puller from Amazon Marketplace:

there's a neat looking Tamiya puller there.
