hurls Posted March 3, 2010 Author Share Posted March 3, 2010 Is there not a button that releases it? Mike Thanks for the reply,there is no button that i can see or find, i think it has some form of ratchet on it and is locked up solid.

I brought the car like it too. so if you find away of releasing it then please tell me and i can try mine!! either theres a small handle under the front or you push upwards then downon the top of the rest and it moves if not pass look for a handle or button on the rear it should be simple enough should being the right word or look for a locking lever on the ratchet part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
