I figured instead of plugging up the Talon thread w more XX axle talk I would start this. It seems pretty clear that xx tech and info is anything but clear. Speed videos are a help in an infomercial way.
So first trip in 0 mile unit and 350 mile unit xx's to pre run b1k was a belt temp,axle,and trans seal disaster . trans seal rig going back to dealer in Oregon for a discussion .
My rig that ate boots and cvs in short order is going to get new axles and hand old ones back to the dealer to see what they do. Looking at Speeds stock double plunging axle I am not clear if it is $500 each or a pair ,does anyone know ? the new OEM 2502-784 center plunging looks pretty good. To be clear my increase in ride height in the rear could have accelerated the cv issue. The other rig had no axle issues at stock height but beat the bottom of frame up a good bit in exchange.
By pulling the air box(along w its filter ) and duct taping on a plastic drain pan it brought the belt temp down a ton. It is no where near Baja 500 prerun able though. More work to do.
Last issue for today my 2019 drivers seat appears to be attached to the slider frame by four iddy biddy screws if the factory puts them in, which they did not. four screws and two hose clamps later it still is not well secured . The seats were not bad .
now back to work on race and prerun rigs. Fire away w your thoughts and maybe we can all be better off.
