I had the mag mayhems in the stick and they were awsome motors but the links had to be bent to clear the endbells and when this was done it caused the rear end to wad up during climbs.I straightened the links and installed the lathes and it is so much better and the rear end no longer wads up under the truck even on vertical climbs.Just thought I would pass this on to those that may be interested.
 
What does "to wad up during climbs" mean?

The link could be bent a zillion different bends, but it still connects the two ends in the same way as if it were straight.

I guess it could be flexing a little...

Anyways, yeah Kevin includes spacers with the kit to move the chassis end of the links outboard a bit for clearance clarence. The original version didn't have the adjustable motor mount thickness accounted for.

I think he was using 11.1 volts, and stock 13 tooth pinions. Woooo.
 
All i know is that after I un bent the rear link the rear end didnt try to twist up under the truck near as bad as when it was bent.Twisted I didnt know that jason had figured this out allready and I had talked to kevin right after posting this and he pretty much said the same thing.
