Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - Mr. Tune - 07-01-2006 I have never seen clutch shoes seperate themselfs from the flywheel pins before. The truck still excelerates like a mofo, but it runs hot, blows plugs in less than a 1/4 tank unless I richen it up alot, and stalls intermittently.

You getting new shoes, or you want me to check if I have some and you get them on sunday if you're going to the track... Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - Mr. Tune - 07-01-2006 I got a spare clutch on hand. It's all good. Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - Ponch - 07-01-2006 Alright, cool. Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - satoch - 07-01-2006 A 3.3 is basically a .21 motor (ok .20), so why would Traxxas even think of running the clutch from a .15 motor on it? Switch to a .21 clutch system and you'll be fine. Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - Michowski - 07-01-2006 stock clutch works flawless on the 3.3. It will last just as long if it were in a 2.5 or any other .15. Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - Mr. Tune - 07-01-2006 No need to switch to a .21 clutch if you ask me. That's the first traxxas clutch I've had that went bad prematurely. No need to dump it just yet . Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - rocco79 - 07-01-2006 I think since its a .20 its time traxxas or the racer steps it up to a real 1/8 style clutch... Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - snakebite46 - 07-01-2006 1/8th scale or equiv would be a good upgrade. Check out this clutch breakage on my 3.3! - Tex - 07-02-2006 yes it would although I couldn't fit one to my 3.3 easily at all. Clutched up, the end CB bearing doesn't even ride on the crankshaft. There is an extender though and it could be done. On second hand I did run the stock clutch on my 3.3 and it looked new still when I took it out the other day. Not one bit of trouble with it. On this new TZ I have there is plenty of space for an 1/8 scale clutch.
