Re: 4-wheel drive trouble

it does sound like you have too much traction....a solution to this might be to notch your wheels so that they have less surface area touching the ground at any given time

Re: 4-wheel drive trouble

If you are only using the 2:1 reduction given in the kit, then you probably don't have enough torque at the wheels to turn. If you were to increase your gear reduction or reduce your traction, you would be able to turn.
