mini spools
« on: May 04, 2006, 11:19:26 AM »

has anyone els had problems with a mini spool coming apart.

replaced the second one in a month in a friend of mines car

dont know if we are doing something wrong or what

its a stock 489 case with 4.30s in it and it keeps throwing the pin out of the case.  and the mini spool case is all cracked.

if it does it one more time its getting a mosier 60 or at least it sounds good

The minis work well in the sand dunes but on anything with a lot of tire ,horsepower or traction you'd be wasting your time not to go with a full spool.  Z
