If you are using the bosch motors/transmission, then try shifting to the low speed/high torque gear. If not, grease your drivetrain (this fixed our problem with the 30's).

Tton,
You have to be more specific, are you tripping the 40 amp circuit breakers? Does it occur all the time or just when you turn, do you have multi motor per side design? What is your gear ratio, etc.?
