clicking from a gearbox
Hi,
I am trying to figure out why our chain driven WCP dual speed gearbox is clicking. I am determined it is the chain or the sprocket. We use 35 chain with Vex pro sprockets. I noticed a bit of wiggle when the sprocket is on the hex axle. Also, when the chain come to the sprocket inside the gearbox, the chain is not aligned central to the sprocket. Any advice how to fix this?
Thanks
