One guy with one problem
Thousands without a problem, i think that is enough information
Please buy another car and don't bother us

I don't think the last part of that was really called for! People are entitled to run whichever car they want to, with or without any problems they may or may not have had, My point was I don't think the route taken by the guy having the problems was the correct one, This should have been taken up with Durango 1 to 1 and attempted to be resolved before posting such comments.

I dare say if he had spent as much time talking to Durango rather than posting on this thread, his problems would have been sorted much sooner.

I agree, but when there is no wish to solve the problem only *******words, without photos of the car, without asking for help and so on, i have to say what i said

My durango didn't go backwards and there is excessive play now, not before though! People are reading this all wrong!!!

Nice one steve, make a tit of your company on here well done!

How about sort the diffs out, they leak from standard, they need shims from standard, an even then some still have issues!

And to others that don't bother reading the whole thread, I wasn't slating durango, just annoyed with the diffs being defective 3 times, anybody with any car would do the same, I'm entitled to my opinion and entitled to air my concerns, ask for advice on here and discuss this. I haven't slated rango at all.

Like I said I'm dealing with rango now, let's just hope steve doesn't take care of this one!

If rango don't resolve this or offer decent advise after all the £££ I spent for them and recommended others then yes I will come back and advise everyone to avoid rango, but that's not my intentions.

Well obviously this guy seems to think it went backwards, and he obviously knows you as he set your radio gear up...

I've read the whole thread.
And saying that durango can't make diffs for sh!t....I would call that 'slating'.

No he sorted a few servo issues on my tranny and in the process it went backwards while he was fiddling with settings, I know what he means as when was first built I put it in the wrong way buy this is because the tranny was all backwards. Nothing to do with this problem now but was a valid point to ask.

Take it like that if you wish, but that's just how youv interpreted that sentence.

I have to disagree with your comments, there is plenty of info in these 5 pages that points towards the input drive gear, wether it's the gear, case, bearings somethings costing me alot of £££

And for you to jump in with that really gets my back up, as a representative of the company id expect better, Adam gave a superb reply and since taken this to durango directly, the reason I didn't earlier was because I expected the response you just gave me.

Captainlip.
Steve73 doesn't work for Team Durango, I'm not sure where you get the idea from that he does.

We at TD will be looking at your diffs with staff who have a combined racing experience of well over a 100 years.

Words do sometimes explain the problem but pictures can really help. Even then there is no substitute for seeing the problem first hand.

I would say 'You cant make diffs for sh*t'

Pack it in slating people for your problem, theres loads of people on here always willing to help each other out. Me thinks alot of these people wont be helping you in the future!

As for durango, you cant beat there customer service and build quality of that car!

Just relax it a bit and stop contradicting yourself this thread is a bit embarrassing for all concerned now. Eat a bit of humble pie, back off and go with the help and it'll all be back to normal in a few weeks.

Good luck with the sponsorship by the way.

I have picked up some 1.5 Drive shafts and started rebuilding them.

They were pretty gummed up with thread lock, which restricted the joint (barrel) considerably (it took a lot of force to straighten them). I have read that a lot of thread lock was common due to original issues of pins getting thrown. I would imagine that if I had installed this, as it was, into another Durango, (considering the angles going into the input shaft,) this would cause a lot of stress on the input shaft and in turn the gearbox and bevel. The gearbox housing would weaken and result in the above more rapidly each time.

Just a thought?

I just want to say that my diff's on my Durango works smooth and have never had any troubble with it. I did shims a little bit on the sides but not on the bevel gear.

I have seen that it might be some difference on the gearbox-cases but not much.

If I turn the 3 screws on the box to hard the gear makes a little bit more noise on my car.

But I'm really satiesfied with the diff's on my car, love it!

I have been driving indoor and outdoor about a year now.

Go Durango! -waiting for the DEX210 :-)

Never had a problem with mine period. However it potentially goes to a new owner tomorrow night.

mine are back with durango today, hope to hear from them soon, customer sevice cant be beaten ill give them that :thumbsup:

Dito, Just got a full set of new driveshafts today to replace the 1.5mm ones i got sent by mistake.

dunno if this helps you or not.
