TRX-4 Sport - Transmission Clicking Fix
zhlédnutí 20KPřed 4 lety
This is how I fixed the transmission clicking or ticking sound that I had on my TRX-4 Sport Unassembled Kit. I tried clocking the driveshafts, transmission front & rear output shafts, and even replaced the driveshafts with MIP units...but the clicking didn't stop. I haven't seen anyone solve or even address the clicking noise so I wanted to share what I did that works. This may not work for all...

Great video! Thank you for showing me how to fix the transmission. I went from a very very noticeable clicking to no clicking whatsoever. I appreciate you good sir!
Glad it helped!
Thank you buddy it is very helpful 👍
Thank you!
Any hinge videos
American Masl Car's 💪😈🖕🔊🤤❤️
Good job well explain. 👍
Does that boat really have a 70 in bottom or is that the top measurement...
It’s a 70” beam and a 48” bottom.
Awesome fix ... I already ordered all the shims to crack down on it, but hear me out. ( maybe a stupid idea ). Drill a 2-3mm hole in the end of the deep case where the shaft has play. Put a screw in to push the shaft forward. BAM ... adjustable. Not sure on the longevity of the threads in the plastic.
Is your boat a 14x48 or 14x36?
It’s a 1448
Thank you so much for sharing the clicking fix for the trx-4 sport. My rig, trx-4 sport, still plastic housing, one gear, had the same problem after around 6 months. Solved the problem just as you described with in total 6x 5x8x0.1mm shims.
That’s great to hear that it helped you out! Thanks for sharing.
Sorry to bother you again but what kind of paint did you use on this build again. Specifically what brand
No bother. I used Duralux Aluminum Boat Paint M736 Aluminum Boat Green. I ordered from Home Depot online but it looks to be unavailable from them now.
@@Forker45 good deal. Thanks
Nice fucking car man, love the style, love the wheels, looks great!
well done sir , thank you .
Great video. Would you happen to remember the part number of the HPI shims?
Thanks! Unfortunately I don’t know the part number for the HPI shims since they were part of clutch kits I’d bought back in the day.
I might have asked you this before but what kind of paint did you use for this
Rustoleum Professional Smoke Gray Gloss. Brushed in several stages cut with mineral spirits to soak in and seal the wood.
@@Forker45 awesome. Thanks for the response. Awesome build
@@Forker45 apparently Home Depot has it for $38 a gallon. Not bad
Yep that’s it. Glad to help out. If you check tinboats forum there’s quite a few threads on how guys lay it down.
@@Forker45 that’s where I got started on this. Doing my first boat 20 yrs ago. Only problem was back then I was in such a hurry to get it on the water, I didn’t bother to weatherproof it. You can guess where that went
What burnout.....lmao
Awesome video! I just ordered the shims. Thank you
YES!!!!!!!
Man that thing screams!
Thanks man it rolls pretty good for a 14ft Jon.
What type of seats are those? They are great to help utilize room on the boat. Just wondering were you got them. Thanks
Pretty sure they’re Atwood seats from Walmart. Bass Pro has some nearly identical looking ones but they are cheaper and the reviews seem to reflect the quality.
Nice !!! Fixed mine my gosh it’s smooth as butter now !!!!! Thanks bro !!!
Thats great to hear! Thanks for the feedback.
I had this problem a while ago. The pin didn't contact the case I'm my 2 speed, but the gear was on constant contact. I just used some sandpaper to take the gear down until it no longer made contact.
Excellent video, great explanation and demonstration
Nice looking rig....I just got the Sport body in the mail yesterday....I have the rack, bumper and light kits coming monday
Thank you!
Well this is my first time on completely building the TRX4 and now I just found out that I have no power to the rear output shaft and there’s a loud noticeable clicking from the transmission so what am I looking for when I open the transmission to fix this situation? Btw great work on these videos !
It’s most likely in that 3 gear area of the transfer case if you have power to one but not the other. I’d recommend going back through the manual and disassembling to see if you missed a drive pin or have something in wrong orientation.
Wow, congrats, and I agree with so many others - fantastic build! 28 mph in a 14 ft jon boat... man, I can't imagine, lol. I'm in the process of building out my 1st jon... a Tracker Topper 12W with a Merc 5hp on it. Gonna use some of these ideas...the easier ones for me at least!
This is the best video. Thanks for taking some time to explain
Good information to compare each case. It's very useful for me. Cool!👍👍😄 I subscribed.
Very helpful. Thank you so much 😊
My rig runs so smooth now, it completely removed the clicking, thanks for this video 👍
Thank you for this video. I like your detailed explanation. I did a first attempt at Shimming but still had the click. Added 0,2mm more shims and now the click is gone. Thanks 😊👍🏻
Does your vehicle has such chattering while turning full left or right? I am having some nightmares. czcams.com/users/shortsVgFbwF3c3DI?feature=share
You need to adjust the endpoints to limit steering angle. Your clicking is binding of the CVs in the front knuckle.
Quick question, should I buy some of those arrma shims for under the spacer as well as the traxxas teflon shims for the other bit
I used the Arrma shims because they are thinner than the Traxxas shims and I had them on-hand. A better choice would be to get the Yokomo set to have multiple thicknesses to choose from.
@@Forker45 they were cheap enough I bought both, cheers for the video
Just curious, how do you feel the paint on the wood is holding up
To be honest I haven’t had the boat out in a minute…the last time I checked when it had been over a year it all looked brand new. That’s outside 24/7 under a boat cover.
@@Forker45 good to know. Thanks
And what kind of paint did you se
Rustoleum Professional Smoke Gray Gloss. I laid it down in multiple coats with first few coats cut with mineral spirits to help penetrate the wood.
@@Forker45 excellent. Thanks for the advice
Would those side hatches support a person’s weight if necessary
Yessir. I designed the supports so the span of the plywood was well within recommended load rating for the grain orientation. See my Part 4 and 5 videos for better shots of the finished deck.
@@Forker45 that was a ridiculously sweet build. Nice job my man
@@largemammaloutdoors4503 thanks bud that’s very kind of you. I hope it helps if you’re looking to do something similar.
@@Forker45 unfortunately my attention to detail isn’t like your, but I can’t wait to another one. I’ve done 2 so far and even though they didn’t turn out as nice as yours they were still fairly fishable.
@@Forker45 it’ll be interesting when I’m up and around again to start a new project boat
I see more and more people using drills to do maintenance on thier RC's. In my thirty years of the hobby I've tried every different type of driver you can imagine. I've set the clutches and speeds on the lowest settings possible. My findings have always been that the plastics on 90% of RC's are heated and thread damaged by anything other than a manual hex driver. Thier were a few cases of Factory team AE plastics and Team Losi plastics held up better using a powered driver. To the naked eye the damage is not noticeable, but under magnification you can see the damage get progressively worse around 10 to 12 cycles of in and out. At around 12 to 15 cycles I found that most threads were almost completely gone, and the screws would generally not tighten fully anymore. The high end racers would last a bit longer around 30 cycles in and out. I have found that if you use a manual hex driver the plastics will generally last 200 to 300 cycles if you take care to not overtighten the screws. I have a Tamiya grasshopper, a Golden Arrow, and a Stampede that has a mechanical ESC that are original and still have good threads in the plastics I'm not trying be ignorant or judging you in anyway. I just want to know if the Plastics may have changed in the last five years ago or so. So much that I may need to run this test again on some of my newer Traxxas vehicles. It sure would make maintenance easier to just hook my bits up to my power drill and zip them in and out. I definitely don't want a bunch of ruined plastics though, as I do methodical and regular maintenance on all my vehicles.
Thanks. I’ve had no issues with the driver I use. If you were to make a video detailing your experiment and findings I’m sure there would be a lot of people interested in those results.
You da man! Had the same problem with a Vanquish transmission and that small amount of play with the pin inside the gears was it! Thanks for all your hard work!
Great to hear you were able to solve it in your Vanquish trans. This style of pin driven, slip fit transmission gear is very common across many RCs. So this method of shimming to reduce side gear clearance could reduce clicking noise in those as well.
Thanks! I didn't exactly followed your instructions because I found there was already a washer in the short shaft you showed (still has some play but a bit less than yours), it was an RTR Sport so maybe recently Traxxas added some washers from factory. What I had was a lot of play in the Spur shaft, and there I added a washer behind the locker shaft. That, and new grease in all the gears brought and absolutely silent and smooth tranny now! Thanks for your video, it really helped me identify the issues!
So glad I as able to help! Thanks for the feedback maybe it can help someone else. 👍🏽
are there more videos with the 3d printed boat?
I have video but it’s not edited. I printed two more standard v2 hulls since this video with your original battery clip design. Since then I modified the hull in Prusaslicer to delete the clip. I now use use a clip-in 18650 holder secured with 3M VHB. I did this to avoid making battery packs and ease of replacement when discharged. I also designed and added a servo hold-down. I’ve been too busy to edit any of it together but I see now you updated to V3 so maybe I will try one of those. 👍🏽
@@Forker45sounds great. could you send me pictures of your modifications?
I’d be glad to. Where would you like me to send?
@@Forker45 you will find my mail addr here www.jtronics.de/impressum/
Some good info here. Thanks!
I just ran my kit build after I installed the electronics and was not impressed with the clicking noise so I will be pulling the transmission out
Good luck! Let us know if you’re able to resolve it.
Damn, I have just de-assembled, greased, assembled and mounted the gearbox. After that, I'm relaxing on the couch and watching this. Now I have to take it all apart again to make sure I don't have that grinding 😂 I have a trx-6 and it of cause have two gears, so it is a little different. But will still have to see if it has this grinding 🙂 Thanks for the tip 👍🙂
Well I wouldn’t go tearing it apart if it sounds ok. I am glad you appreciate my effort though! 👍🏽
@@Forker45 thanks, but now I'm curious to see if mine also have this grinding 🙂
Thank you so much for posting the video on that clicking sound🤔 and how to fix ...thank you 👍👍👍👍👍
Glad to hear the video was useful! 👍🏽

Dude drives with 2 feet. LOL
Good video
I am doing mine and cannot get a straight cut to save my life.
I understand it is tough. I have a “master” straight board that I clamped in place and used as a fence for my saw. Use it on every cut you make even short ones and everything will be nice and straight. Also using a specific plywood blade made the cuts much easier and smoother vs a standard or even one with carbide tips. Edit: just watched and noticed I used a piece of square tube in this case but it’s the same idea. In general for most saw cuts I’ll clamp something in place for a fence.
is that square aluminum frame or 2x2 wood?
The frame is all aluminum.
