    Just ruminating, but would knocking out the gears to the 1st and second axles on a DJM Austerity remove the cogging issue by letting one axle and the rods do all the work?

      @skipepsi They run fine with no motor or worm attached. It’s not the rods, it’s backlash within the gear train when the motor and worm are in position. EFE have changed the motor which may have resolved the issue with the new releases.

      Gibson 4851N for the driving wheels. Please don't assume the rapid availability of that info means its a current project :)

      What @Porcy Mane said! On the flat it works ok, nothing special, but ok. Downhill, it is, all downhill. I've got two, and two RT chassis' for them! 

       

      @mike morley which gearbox and motor combo have you used please?

    So what I thought was a failed crank end seal on my Suzuki GT250 turned out to be the neutral selector seal, 2 bolts, no engine out and split crank case = result, more time for the railway.
