Re: RIP: W57	Thu, 01 April 2004 04:15

W57 lasted about 2-3 months, and yes I did start breaking gearboxes after the installation of the TrueTrac and new suspension (ie heaps more traction). I'm replacing my 225 tyres with 255/265's so I'll have even more traction soon! Long-term solution is either R154 or V161, but both ways will require new flywheel and clutch and tailshaft mods, although I guess the R154 will be easier, ie shorten front section and weld on new yoke. The thing that scares me about the R154 is Nick's experience of breaking two of them with a stock 7M. Plus it's basically a truck gearbox. I really really want a V161, so maybe I should just bite the bullet, get a $5k loan, and do it. I'm used to being in debt now! [Report message to a moderator]
