picco in jato
my jato, year and 2mo old, wasted the org 3.3, i drive very very hard. went to the lhs bought a picco .26max, good price. got it home , its not a bolt in. new era has an adapter kit, but its out of stock. called them they said they will have some next week. big Q: has anyone used the kit? does it work well? will it strip the stock gears out of a jato? thanks guys.

Yeah you will destry the stock gears fast, at least loosen up the slipper for now, but you are much better off getting the Hot-Racing hardened steel gears. I ran those and they were great.

RE: picco in jato
well i went to my lhs. the owner did not offer to buy the .26maxx back. so if you want it e-mail me. ill pay shipping. however i put a little oil in it,cause it seamed a little tight. after i put oil in it turned real good. have not even bolted it to a mount [email protected].
