Finally got the spare trans opened up, looks worse than I expected. Drove fine, other than a slight clunk when going from 5th to 4th - never even a grind from 3rd to 4th, no hint there was an issue until I found synchro teeth in the axle seal. In addition to a wasted synchro there are some broken and burned up parts. The oil sprayer broke off and the shaft it supplied got a little hot. Ordering a few replacement parts, and coating stuff this time. Still, after three years of racing with nothing more than a fluid change, I can't complain.

Oh, the horror! Not everyone knows what those are supposed to look like, but I can appreciate what happened in there. Will you be sticking with the stock ratios still, or have you decided to tweak them based on performance at a given track?

Stock ratios? We have been using the Kaaz gear set since 2012. Nothing will be changing.

Crap, there I go showing my age again. You're still using the stock final drive, yes?

Not since 2010, we use the xB final drive.
