This didn't help enough for me to put it on my new drive I just bought. So I'm taking it off my old drive. Pm me if your interested.

Is it the machine worx tail?

Yes it is the max machine worx tail. Polished. They don't sell the satin one anymore. I put in on for the beginning of the season and broke the drive. I got a whole new drive and I'm not gonna install it on the new one.

sorry to hear that Gary. You think the tail had something to do with it? I would think the tail eases stress on the drive since they’re not dragging as long under heavy load and not working as hard.

the gears. I dont have forward gear. Just reverse and neutral.my mechanic said to just buy an upper. Gear sets are hard to get. So I just bought a real clean low hr drive.
