Hello there. Months ago now i put this thread in, and still no wheelies yet.

I have now fitted a brand new 29.5cc big bore kit, a DDM mid high exhaust and air filter is always cleaned.

Is it just because of all the alloy, the extra weight. Seems very occasionly that the truck will wheelie, but only if it hits a slight rut in the ground. This will normally throw the front end up.

Have seen few posts on other areas of the net, people with same problem.

I am running 14t pinion and 16tooth spur. And 16 tooth inside with standard diff gear.

Have even fitted brand new tyres on the back. Tried grass and tarmac.

COuld it be poor rear wheel alignment. I them toed in quite a lot, like its visualy possible to see. I would say about 20mm from the inside of the wheel to the chasis edge.

LOw speed needle is set to 1 and 3/8 turns. HIgh speed is set to about 1.5 turns

I would say your tires are too hard. Make sure you put the M's in the rear for more bite. You can also try running the tread backward.
If you are sitting still and WOT do the tires just spin? If so, its the tires. FG tires will last forever but, that is because they are hard rubber.
Its all about traction and aluminum parts will make it worse if you put the parts in the front. They will weight the front down and make the tires spin more.
The gearing, motor, and pipe you have should easily put the front end in the air.
Check your spark plug color also.
 
what clutch spring are you running? if its the standard 6K one thats your culprit.

get the blue or red one and I bet it ends up on its roof.

i had trouble lifting the front on mine for a while until I did the clutch spring, then I could wheelie even on 1/4 throttle while rolling!
