RC4WD 870k loading shovel

Maybe someone with more knowledge will chime in, but from what I have seen a bearing shim is needed in that axel. Around the circumference of the bearing. If I'm not mistaken the housing is machined just a tad too large for the bearing.

P.s. I hope your listing on eBay will be descriptive in problem with axels and other issues. I know someone that may be interested if the price is right, will tell them to look for it in a week or so.

Hi there.
yes if it goes on ebay I will list all faults.
got it running again after a lot of work and still do not trust the machine.
no word on my new diffs or a upgrade, maybe they need a few more to break before rc4wd demand anything is done. there is 4 out there now with the same problems that I know of and mine is only number 8.
all the best

Hi all.
yep been in touch with rc4wd. just sent a picture in a email and then no more emails.
don't think they are bothered that a model they sell in sitting in bits on a bench broken after 6hrs. they have the money and are thousands of miles away.
they may think I will just go away.
not going to happen.
if it does not get repaired or sold it will go to every show and be shown on every forum, facebook and twitter in bits.
good advertising

hi all.
well 13 days now and still no news on spare parts for the diffs.
rc4wd have stopped replying to my emails now so think long and hard before you part with $3600 of your money.

hi all.
14 days now and RC4WD will still no reply to emails.[/IMG]
$3600 and you can not use them.
think hard before you buy from them.

If you bought your 870k with a credit card, I would check with them, to discuss what your options are. A lot of cards automatically provide a one year guarantee for most purchases.

hi there.
no rc4wd will only take a bank trans for the expensive models. no credit card, no paypal.
you live and learn. they will not answer emails, reply on forums, nothing so I'm stuck with it sitting on my bench with no axles in the model.
poor very poor.
