It's happened to all of us, you strip the set screw in your pinion gear and can't get it off. Stop down at your local slot-car track and pick up a pinion vice. This $5.00 item can not only save you time and aggravation, but your motor too!

What if I don't have a slot-car track anywhere nearby.Is there anywhere else I can pick up this product?

A Google on "slot car motor gear puller" will find many places that sell them on-line.

I believe Rob Murdock(murdock rc) sells pinion pullers as well.. Im pretty sure I saw him post about them a month or so ago..

Wait here >>>I cut this from a post rob put up a while back in the murdock Q&A section...

"Other new items that are now available at Murdock R/C.

Pinion Pullers. Not something you will use every day but when you need it man are they handy. $8 each"

I would have put a link to the thread but the thread is like 17 pages long.. So it would have been difficult to find...LOL..
