Great advice Chris.

Still doesn't change the fact the outdrives are too hard IMO.

The fractures are all brittle fractures. I would rather have a more ductile failure on a component like this. A little more ductility and flex would allow just enough play to prevent flexes.

I am not talking about a low yield high UTS material, I don't want to bend a handful. I would just prefer a slightly lower modulus.
