i have a nitro evader st pre built and it eats up spear gears... like
in 3 minutes.. i justt put on a new clutch bell and its still doing
it... the gears mesh and line up so i know its not crossing

but i looked for one and couldn't find one i was wondering if anyone
knew were to get one i would appreciate it it very much thanks...

Check to see if the chassis is bent. That will make the gears sit at a
slight angle and cause them to eat themselves up. A metal spur gear will
just hide (temporarily) the underlying problem. make sore the engine
mount is not in crooked or loose, shimmed unevenly. .
