The muggy is geared a little tall. Replacing the stock tires with something like the new Proline VTR series will help on the ratio. Dynamite long-wear clutch shoes will help with some wear. Clutch bearing failure is due to chassis flex which is bad on the Muggy.
I would also do a little extra bracing on the chassis. For more detailed information, email davidb@rcdriver.com
David did this exact project and may be able to shoot you a few pictures.

OK,thanks for the help. I just have to decide if I'll convert it to elec or keep it Nitro. Also I might sell it to a freind and buy smething else.
