Default Stripping gears in gearbox

Hi . I run 2 b44.1 cars but use 1 for bashing with a 5.5 t motor for speed etc but the plastic gears don't last long . I use the correct spacers in the housing also. Yes Its not how it should be treated . I have no probs with my race car at all .Any suggestions ?

Yeah, loosen the slipper, it slips to prevent sudden violent inertia to idler gears and spurs from acceleration and jumping.

Try using a less violent motor than a 5.5 for bashing?

5.5 is really a race motor - and as such you'd expect to be doing regular diff rebuilds with it to keep it top notch.

The faster you go the quicker things wear out.

But deffo follow the advice given re your slipper.

sounds like you have the shims wrong in the diff housing. I stripped two in one meeting changed to 5 and 3 in stead of 6 and 2 they say in the manual, never had any more problems.
