Rampage xt gear issue

[Madelyj]

Hello. I just got my rampage xt and I went outside yesterday to run the second tank. While running it around it decided to stop wanting to move. I let it cool down and took the gear cover off to see if I see an issue. I noticed the bell house spins and the nut that goes through the first gear just spins freely. When I started the truck and hit the gas the bell house moves but the gears don't. I was thinking a clutch issue? Not sure. Any suggestions or ideas would be great. Thanks

First things first: check to see if the set screws on that nut that goes through that first gear is loose, or missing. Tighten it, if it's there. Replace it if it's missing. Check all of the set screws in your transmission for that matter.
