Thanks for the tip, when i tore them apart today I noticed they had A LOT of play in them. I picked up new housings and outdrives and they had next to zero play. Ran a couple packs and had no issues.
I will be keeping and eye on them.
Thanks again!
Keep us /me updated on how that green grease works out for you.
