Broken Outdrives...

[pmpnep]

Hey I have a T3 and one of the outdrives has a chip in it at the end and my MIP's keep poppin' out. DO I have to buy a new one? Is there a heavy duty one that can take alot of abuse.Not HG or RRP because theres even say that they will wear out quickly. My other
question is, Are there any extra long Outdrives because I lowered my Rear A-arms and that might be why I broke them to. I lowered it slightly not even a CM.

Get steel outdrives. The HG and RRP are aluminum so they won't last as long. Lowering the rear ride height will help keep the shafts in the outdrives better than at a higher ride height. If there is any space between the drive pin and the hub, place a spacer on the inside of the hub on the axle between the hub and drive joint. This will also help keep the shfts farther in the cup.

You also might want to put in down dtops in your shocks. They are plastic spacers that go at the very bottom on the inside of the shocks so the suspension doesnt open all the way and prevents the CVDs from popping out of the outdrives.
