OK - so really, i have had nothing but problems with these trinity monsters!!!
First off, i was running the 3racing ball diff and swing shafts...was fine with the stock and topcad alum wheels - but then i got the trinity wheels. I've snapped 3!!! 3racing driveshafts since
- the first shaft snapped in a bad landing with the off roads, so i figured it was 'normal'.
-the second shaft snapped with the ON roads - BUT - i was driving in a totally straight line on a totally flat area of car park BITUMEN!!!
-the third one snapped also with the on roads, and also in a straight line - on a straight road out the fron of my house.
Now - i had made sure there was no binding or even 'looseness' to the wheels - ESPECIALLY the 3rd time - i had checked it all thoroughly, and it was all nice and tight. The last two snaps didnt even occur during acceleration! It was like, i was driving - and then i have a wheel rolling away from the chassis!!!
To make things even worse - i had tried the wheels with my GPM shafts and the stock diff (waiting on gpm ball diff to arrive at LHS).
and i STILL had problems!!! This time tho - the pin has stripped the inside of the wheel!!!!
Has anyone else had ANY problems with these trinitys???? Why am i being punished like this????? What the hell am i doing wrong here??? -lol-
