Onderwerp: Re: [Fot] Crown and pinion gear break in
I think it is good measure to check the heat of the differential casing after a
few laps when the pinion and crownwheel are freshly mounted : when the casing
gets very hot, something is wrong : or the parts are bad or they are mounted
not correctly
There are at least 2 manufactures of the TR parts, I forgot about the names. As
far as I know, used original parts are running cooler than some of the
aftermarked parts. How was the noise of the diff? Did you notice the smell
during the first laps?

Onderwerp: [Fot] Crown and pinion gear break in
I would love to here the FOT experience in breaking in new differential gears.
What has worked well for you in the past?
Last weekend, I was running the TR3 at Hallett with a brand new 4.55 gear set
and it failed. I probably got 30 laps total in 4 sessions on track. I did not
think to follow any set break in procedure with the gears and I am wondering if
that is why they failed.
I am interested in the lists experience with brand new or new old stock ring
and pinion break in.
Here is a pic of the failed set.
