Bearing are cheap. Just go to Avidrc.com and get new ones. They are a buck a piece. for $8 you can do all 4 wheel axles.

How are your dif beaarings? Bad bearings in there can cause all kinds of weird handleing things too. Not to mention cause alot of drivtrain drag and excess heat in the motor and esc and reduced run time.

That's what I did... I ordered a few dozen from Avid and installed them. It definitely seemed to help. My locking down issue is MUCH rarer than before. I think perhaps a little bit of everything (diff shimming, bearings, etc, etc...) helps.

I still think the majority of my problem is the MGM controller. I'll get the updated firmware and see if that helps.

BTW, I had already replaced all the bearings and lubed the diffs when I changed to the 3905 ring and pinion.
