Howdy! I bought this life like a unit chassis without the shell, because I need to power another. When I got it, the trucks were partially EXPLODED, and I didn't have a clue as to how to fix 'em. Long story short, I got a set from Walther's and I have absolutely NO idea how to: 1) get the olde trucks OFF 2) re installing the new ones Any help in this department would help. Thank you Rick Bevan
While I don't own an E-Unit, Like-Like drives are pretty much clones of Athearn Blue Box, so there is a good amount of documentation for these types of drives. Most likely, there is a clip on the top of the gear tower that both holds the worm in place and acts as a retainer to prevent the trucks from falling away when you pick the model up. Basically, you need to pry this off to drop the truck out of the bottom of the frame. I think the wiring may be held in place with solderless connections, which are easy to undo. I would solder the wires on when you reassemble, just to improve reliability.
