Dana 300 Broke

[68jeepsterkid]

has anyone had issues with their tera low gears?? I bought a set from a guy who had a new set on the shelf for a long time and the set only had 3 gears in it;two small ones and the large center one with one piece with two gears on it. well I set it up to the book exactly with new bearings seals etc,and my 3rd trip out the front drive gear broke teeth off till I lost low range and by the time I was out of the trail I had cracked the case.I see the new kits come with like 8-10 gears. I want to know if they will stand behind: their product,anyone have a contact for TERA FLEX??finding a direct contact other than their address is like grabin' a greased pig!!! help!!

JPFREAK just rebuilt his 300 due to breakage of low gears, but I'm not sure what set he had. There is some posts about it. If I find a link, I'll edit this post

JPFreak had Tera gears.

I had the 5 gear set.

Beware that the tera intermediate gears are two pieces, witch are splined together then welded and finally machined. My weld failed, and the gears could float around on the splined section of the gear untill it cought on the case and things went boom!

Tera did send me a new gear set, but I was on my own to find a new case.


This is just one of the reasons JB conversions LoMax gearset is the one to have. (one piece gears, larger teeth, better matierials?)

I actually run a 2.7 Klune in front of the 4-1 D300.

I had the Klune engaged and the 300 in high range when it went boom.

Tera gears used to be welded. They are completly different now. Just call tera and see what they say. They will probably just swap you with new ones. If not... let me know. I know some people.
