Re: Broke the drive
Sorry to hear that Tom. It was 2 years ago when my TRS blew, same thing about 4500rpm and the splined shaft that plugs into the tranny broke just ahead of the ujoints. I knew at the time that eventually something was to fatigue and break but I expected it to be in the drive or tranny. There just is not enough time to CAT scan every single part every year to look for possible flaws. Chris

Re: Broke the drive
hey Morgan, not apart yet. decided to clean my shop so I could find the out drive if I removed it. :D
I hope to pull off the lower this afternoon. |
Re: Broke the drive
I went thru my upper this winter cause a rock ledge got friendly with the lower (replaced the lower with a new Imco).
I was told the existing XR (03 vintage) vert shaft had a tendency to crack starting from an oil hole and merc had released a newer design shaft- I had it put in for piece of mind, was about $200. |
Re: Broke the drive
Hey Tomcei, Sorry to hear about your drive that sucks. How much power are you putting to it?
Hey Morgan, Hows the boat coming along? Pantera should have you in the water soon, after your done then they start getting to mine. So hurry up and get that thing out of there. :) just kidding should be a great summer. |
Re: Broke the drive
Hey mike it's 600+
I found a stock xr lower with a couple of test hours only Also found a standard bravo upper that is suposed to have all imco guts, steel tower floors and imco shafts, gears etc.,etc. I was told this "standard bravo" upper was now stronger than a stock xr. Is this true?? |
