1978 Santa Fe Sd-18 question
« on: February 12, 2016, 08:16:41 pm »
I bought a sd-18 from 1978 and its awesome! But when it came in the mail today ,as soon as I took it out of the box, the rear truck set fell off... I slapped it back on and it stays and runs well but I have no idea if I put it back on right. Is it just a friction fit on that metal gear thing?
