The planetary drive started to make noise occasionally a while back but kept going. A month or so ago I was using the Hayes to bench test something and I was running it with the rear wheels off the ground when the noise got louder and louder and eventually all stopped except the buzz of the motor. The way I built this truck was not all that smart because I have to take the cab off to remove the trans. It comes out the bottom but bolts in through the top. Not a huge job but my big KW and Euclid trans come out the bottom and I built them first. Sure enough they are easy to remove but have never needed to come out. Sometimes we think we learn more and get smarter but...lol Anyway, enough chatter. Here is what I found and a video showing the issues and fix. I hope...
