After spending over an hour sanding and grinding the end of the clutch bell (where it meets the pinion) to get the pinion to run true to the bell, I finally took her out today to give her some hell! It was nice and as always I drew a croud to watch! LOL!! How's everyone else's baja running right now?

It was great weather out here today. Ran the four bajas, only had 50% luck.
1. Broke plastic end of shock shaft in 4 minutes of running on # 1
2. Broke dog bone in 20 mins on #2
3. had a hard time keeping the 30.5 running
4. All ok so far.

Welcome Kubic, nice to see another here... You should be able to get packages of 100 e clips for Fastenal if you have one in your town.

If they don't have them in stock they should be able to get them, also you can pick up some for the spur gear
