Nice! Thanks I have a handful of random ones like that. But it’s a mish mosh little pile. Maybe I should order some.
 
After my last run with this FJ I had some sort of binding and then it simply wouldn’t move. I couldn’t even manually turn the wheels. So I tore into the gears and all seemed well. I found the issue in the GRU.

It seemed that one of the bearings seized up. I had a spare so I replaced it and tossed some more grease into the GRU and added some grease to the plastic front Tamiya gears. I took it for a quick test run and it’s as good as new.
