| Worn out worm drives
I have had my diffs apart 3 times now to check and regrease and every time I could see the worm teeth wearing thinner each time. I just tore it down again and foud pieces of the gear are chipping off, most likely due to the teeth wearing thin. The spool gear looks fine. I do run my rig alot but it will suck to have to buy $30 worth of worm gears every month. How many others have done this? |

I've seen one other post so far about this. Looks like I need to do an inspection on mine... Not sure what's wrong |
