1. Unscrew
gearboxes (left & right) from lower hull. |
2. Remove
motors from gearboxes. |
3. Check that new (metal) gearboxes are greased and can move
freely. |
4. Fit
motors into new gearboxes. |
5. Fix
new gearboxes with motors into lower hull. |
Hints:
Use a screw driver with a magnetic head (or bluetack) to hold
screw in place when fixing gearboxes to lower hull. |
If you are upgrading
to metal heavy duty gearboxes, we recommend that you also upgrade
the plastic sprockets to metal sprockets at the same time. Upgrade
to metal heavy duty gearboxes and metal sprockets is recommended
if you intend to run metal tracks on your tank.
Note that no
soldering is required! All you need is a set of screw drivers.
