It seems that there is a problem with the heat treating of the out-drives in our one-way

If you have one please send back the out-drives, if you haven't used it, and send back the whole unit if you have used it.

If the out-drives are to soft it will wear out the out-drives and cause the one-way diameter to get notched, and may cause the one way bearings to be clogged with debris.

We harden all the parts in house and apparently didn't get them hard enough, I'll have them sent out to get them harder than they currently are.

We will cover all repairs and shipping to fix the parts, if we can not fix it we will replace it.

To all of our customers, I apologize.

Thanks.

The new hardened out drives are being shipped out today.

Four sets of the new improved out drives were used this weekend at the KOTW race with no issues at all. No wearing, no ratching or any other negative things happened with them.

I really appreciated everyone that has sent these back and understand that we sincerely apologies for the in convince.

Thanks,

Since I didn't get home until late yesterday evening, I haven't had a chance to inspect mine yet but it still feels smooth as glass. I will tell anyone looking to buy one of Chad's oneways this. The improved outdrives are fixed! I ran mine all day Friday and then pulled them out to inspect and clean them and they looked perfect, they looked exactly as they did when Chad handed them to me to put in my car. Like I said, I haven't had a chance to inpect them after the second day of racing, but they feel smooth as glass and I don't expect to find anything wrong with them. I'll post later after I've had a chance to inspect them after race 2.

Thanks Chad for coming through on a promise!

No problem, glad that they worked as well as they were supposed to.
