Big deal, i dont even use a gear cover. Its just another 2 screws i have to take out. I have been running on this spur for over 2 months now in dirt/dust/gravel and anything else you can think of. Its not that big of a deal to run without a gear cover. Same with my brother, he has not been using a gear cover either and still no problems. The only time i ever wreck a spur is when im jumping and i was jumping the other day and surprisingly no stripped gears.
whenever i go in the dirt i get little rocks/dirt in the spur/pinion gear. then every time it hits that spot you hear a noise. i will try running without it next time. hey fuse, we both have a problem. you strip spurs and i trip stub axels!
