Need Help Locating 48T Steel Replacement Spur Gear for FG MT5 2-Speed Transmission!

Hi Guys,

My son and I need some help in locating a 48T steel replacement spur gear for my FG MT5 Monster Truck! This weekend we just smooth stripped out the plastic high side gears coming off a small jump! I have the CY 29cc motor with a Jetro tuned pipe and I think it just has too much torque for the plastic gears! I have located the 18T and 16T pinion gears and the 46T spur gear, but have not been able to locate the 48T spur gear for the FG 2-Speed transmission #7451! I would consider a new or used set of steel replacement gears or just a new or used 48T steel spur gear! I would sure appreciate any help you guys might be able to give us in locating this spur gear or set of steel gears! Thanks.:helpsmilie:

Thanks guys for your suggestions! By the way I live in Houston, Texas! I did try Big Boy Toys and Hobbies and they were out of stock also. I have located and bought the three other gears, an 18T steel pinion gear (#6432/01), a 16T pinion gear (#6431) and a CAT5 46T steel spur gear that is supposed to work on the 2-speed transmission, according to both Large Scale RC and Big Boy Toys and Hobbies! Apparently the company that used to make the 44T spur gear for the 2-speed tranmission was Crazy Nuts Racing out of California, but they quit making them about two years ago. So, I have been advised to go with a different set of gears, so maybe someone that might know where I can get a 48T steel spur gear or might have a used 48T spur gear left over! I will probably have to get the plastic one (#6052/01) and take it to a machine shop and have them make me one out of steel! But that could turn out to be very expensive!! I am still hoping for someone here to be able to lead me to one!
