If you have do you still have the stock gears around and feel like getting rid of them.
I have a post up on the Wanted board so PM me if you have them.
Has anyone else had their Tera 3.15's:nuke:
My 18 gears had had the low range go out twice. I thought that I must has screwed up the instal the first time so I had a shop do it the second and the same result. Each set I get one season out of and then the teeth start bending and breaking off. I took them back to who I got them from and he is sending them back to see if they will replace them butI'll be dammed if I ever buy another set. I posted this here becuase I need gears this weekend and need to at least have the stock ones as back-up if Tera says I am out of luck.
I just sent them an e-mail checking to see what they are willing to do.

Dean we have had 2 sets of the 3.15's go boom. Both times it took a tooth off the small gear.....we know a dealer really well so the warrenty thing was really easy. (Had a new set in 2 days) I'll check to see if we have the old gears laying around.

So far Zippo has offered me an 18 out of a 64 Scout so I think I'll do that, that way I have time to see what Tera will do and I have a whole case to just drop in. Anyone know what might be different on the scout 18 that my 18 other than it works!:D I think I will have to pull the front yoke and put on my 1310 size yoke but other than that I don't know. Anyone?

The spec's of my rig
39.5's, RC60, 5.13's, ARB's, 90' wheelbase, it rarely gets out of low range, and gets wheeled allot.
