Default Reverse and performance

Hi, all

my truck is Savage XSS with STS D30M using 17/47 gear.

I'm seeing a little lack of perfomance when i installed the reverse module, is that possibile?

That should make any performance decrease. But if anything the reverse weighs more, but not enough to lose performance. Maybe it was the way you broke in your motor. Take the reverse out and see what happens then.

You will notice a small decrease in performance due to the added rotating mass of the reverse gears and the weight of the Reverse Module itself.
