Spur gear

Where the hell can I get a 46T spur gear from my Inferno??? I ate the one I have by not adjusting the mesh just right and I wanna run my buggy damnnit!!!!

I've called every LHS I could find the number to in NJ. They all tell me, "I can order it today on a rush order and have it next Monday. GRRRRRRR

Tower is backordered, Hobbypeople doesnt know what a Kyosho is. Horizon either. Cant find one on ebay.....THIS SUCKS!!!

Help...........................

rob - alot of times this happens. If tower is backordered - that means that Great Planes is backordered, which is the same supplier most LHS's get their stuff from. You are just gonna have to wait. I have been waiting over 2 weeks for my rebuild parts for my RZ(VO1B). They have been backordered. Finally in stock, so they should arrive by this Weds.

Cant walk up the drivers stand now though, so alot of good they will do me.

Thanks Meathead but they only have the steel one.

NA.....this really sux cause I had to wait over a month to get the funds up to rebuild the buggy, i ran it like 2-3 times and now Im down gain.....GRRRRRRRRR


OK So, what parts does everyone keep on hand for times like this?? I know for damn sure I'm keeping extra a-arms, hingpins, e-clips, clutch shoes, clutch springs, clutch bells, shock shafts, and now spur gears on hand for every ride.

Anything else you guys can suggest??

Rob, I put a call into my LHS. They don't have one either. His response was that people don't usualy burn up the spur gear on the MP 7.5. Sucks that sports one is made out of plastic.

man, good luck.

You can't use a steel one? They show it as an option part. What is the part # I will call LHS and see if they have one

It comes on the Sports version (the one with the blue and white prepainted body).

Yup Plastic. Grrrrr Oh well live and learn.

I figured the plastic one would be fine and at $5 no big deal if I kill one every now and again. I just didint think it would be THIS ard to find out. So, might as well get the steel....Tower def has those.

So, while were on the subject, Ive got a 13T clutch bell.....would you guys recommend staying with the 46t Spur or going to a 49T?
