TRS weak cases?
I have gone through 2 try's in 15 hours one set of lower gears were brand new, I am pushing big power for a TRS but the last RH went 2 seasons of extremes a use no failures .... So I am wondering now how many failures can these cases take? I seriously think there is a case issue helping mine die so fast now I don't have corrosion but had at least 2 explosions inside that I know of who knows how many before that.... Is there a point where it just won't hold anymore?
I am well state of all the issues with bigger power and TRS but should last longer then 14 hours |
Who's building them?
|
My buddy Scott he's been doing them for many years never had issues like we're having all the sudden
|
How many times has the thought of moving up to 3A's crossed your mind? From what I hear the transom cut out is larger on the SSM 3A's so that is not an issue. I think really the only big issue for us TRS guys is the trans tailstock (other than the cost of the drives and props)
|
Oh it's in the plans for future, but gonna be at least 2 seasons away, I had more power in old engines as far as TQ goes, I beat the drives never had issue, until n ow... I wonder if there is crack inside case allowing flex maybe? or just weak? or just bad gears, who knows some live some don't..

Your setup is like putting a 14-71 blower on a 2 bolt main 330 engine, and wondering why the crank snapped.
TRS +650hp+heavy hull+rough water+aggressive driver = broken drives. Lol |
You`re in denial! 1" prop shaft, nuff said.

What is the weakest part of the drive? I can't remember anymore..

Lower gears and on a right hand pushes against the carrier the left pushes into the case...
