Hi all, anyone know if there are any stronger outdrives that fit the db10 / trophy rat platform?

I don't race, and I do keep the slipper a little on the tight side because I like the acceleration. However, after only about 5 packs, the outdrives have massive divots worn into them. They are definitely catching the dogbones and preventing the rear suspension from cycling property. The dogbone pins do NOT have flat spots at all, which makes me think the outdrives are just too soft or, more likely, too thin.

I will replace the outdrives for now with stock parts, and I'll run the slipper a little looser, but that will be a band-aid. Anyone know of any parts that fit this diff/gearbox which are much beefier?

Thanks!
