Thanks for mentioning that! I went and checked my bars and they wouldn't rotate at all. Now I know what they meant by "play." I thought it meant left/right movement.. not up/down.

The oneway slips worse now...
Do i take the drivecup out, oil the shaft of the drivecup and put it back in?
How about that white grease that the kit includes?

what exactly is this 'slippage' in the one way?:
A-the outdrive can actually rotate backwards in the one-way bearing?.
B-the one-way bearing is spinning/slipping in the purple hub?.
if either of those, only cure is a new unit all together..
actually, you could replace the one way bearings if you had the proper tools.. some are press fit in the hubs.... and i think some are epoxy'd in... i would rather have it replaced if need be..

I guess it was Problem A...
I am happy to annouce that after using the HPI white grease, there is no more slippage in the oneway.... now it locks solid whenever it's suppose to...
I am a happy camper!
I was always told not to grease or oil the oneway bearing it self in because it can slip, but i guess its backwords?

I greased both outdrives one that was slipping before had some light scratch? marks.
