Hi Jake,
I saw on the Ozarmor site that they fitted but looking at the m41 boxes the shafts are to long!!. Brian...

John just been looking on RCtankDE yep they have them. Might wait till the motors come then ordered them. I see they also have the wheel sets. But I would like to get them from Dave he's going to put a set by for me when they come in.so I'm getting there bit by bit. Brian...

Wheelspin don't usually hang about, motors should be with you in a few couple of days, its not the best time of year unfortunately, I think postal service is creaking a bit at the moment.

If I was you, if you don't already have one that is, invest in a mini gear puller, to get pinion gear from old motor, it will need to be fitted to your 480.

John

Yea use to have one when I raced off road RC many years ago where that is God only knows. Will have to see where I might get one!!!

You dont have to have one, I don't, it will make it a lot easier, I used a steel plate with a 3mm slot cut in to it and a 2mm masonry nail to knock it out.

John

John just found one on eBay

Brian send me info please,
I did mine the hard way, first and last time! I had a brain wave when I was trying to do mine, I'll heat up the pinion gear on gas cooker, expand it, genius! Did it come off? You've guessed it, all I did was stink out the kitchen and melt my fingers, it stayed hot for ages, I can laugh about it now, at the time I had the hump for ages.

John

I think that's because the shaft is steel and the piñion is brass.they expand at different rates . It's an RCmotor puller made by Associated very old but works well it's the one I had. Brian...
