the gears rock iam runnin a 3b eng 5 speedbox with the 58% reduction gears with the 8% overdrive

most times im not getting into 5th gear the 3b just lacks the nuts to keep it goin, and somtimes 1st gear can be a bit to tall otherwise sweet


certainly flog the truck to get up the climbs anymore and are also good for the slow decent

I have seen one disengage half way up a climb, it was nearly disasterous as a result the guy who owned it sent it back to Marks 3 times and it still wasnt right so he ended up pulling it out and doing the diff gears. It was a shame that he had to resort to this as it could have been a good product if all the bugs had been ironed out before it put so many people off. :cry:

It first happened just after he bought it about a year or so ago, he pulled it out and sent it back they repaired it, he got it back and it was good for a short period then failed again, he sent it back twice more with no luck and was told that there was nothing wrong with it. By this time it was out of warrenty and he was out of patients. :x
