Put the Spartan in before our Robe Beachport trip. Now I understand how they work. Why it engages when under load, and why it loosens up and slips when coasting.






But...I didn't have time to fit the new driveshaft before the trip. Took the gamble and lost.

Annnnnnd broke another diveshaft on the trip in the dunes. The constant extending of the front end over the whoops was too much for the short shaft and crap cv's. So as soon as I got home after the trip I bunged the new double cardi in. That's two buggered shafts in the two longer expeditions away. How anyone can make one last with 4" of lift
