I can't get it BUTTER smooth and not slip(every diff out of every car I had is like that). New plates and ceramic balls, white LW outdrives?
yep, the molded TB02 kit outdrives I can never get smooth, always notchy.
Big improvement going to either the black EvoIII or white EvoIIIse outdrives.
The black ones don't seem to chip/crack/break as easy as the white one,
usually slightly cheaper too.
