Yes sir you would be correct. When I got it I actually bought two in a package deal. One was only used a couple times and they broke an outdrive.JK Racing wrote:VW, you have the Pro (first version), edition 2, not the SB V2 (which uses plastic outdrives), right?
naushad, my SBV2 also have crazy outdrive wear - I did the steel outdrives and it was good after that.
I need too go find a compression fiting too put on these as I read you did that too yours to solve the breaking issue. I also had installed small limiters too the shocks so the axles wouldn't bottom out and I trimmed the chassis slightly too allow more droop in the rear. A few people looked the buggy over and were impressed with it and the designs put into it almost 10 years ago.
I was curious how it would do since it doesn't have built in chassis kickup, but I was surprised on how easy it was too drive. It's a big learning curve though coming from stock truck and stock short course.
