I purchased a new Raider xl blx last month. Was only able to run it a handful of times because of little broken parts. No big deal. Took it out last week and the motor would spin but it barely moved. Reading here I checked the input gear and yes the pin stripped the plastic gear inside. Realized it was all plastic gears so ordered the metal gears following this thread

I ordered everything except the gear case and motor mount since mine was molded one piece and figured I'd see if it fit. Well, it doesn't. I went ahead and ordered a whole gear from amazon. I might order the gear case and motor mount but now I'm not even sure if it'll fit the chassis the metal gears look like a 48p while my plastic gears are larger and look like the 32p. Anyways I'll update if I order the gear case, motor mount and 59mm input shaft. I feel like I dropped too much on a practically new buggy.
Just wanted to give a heads up
Here are some pics
