Yea, GARBAGE trasnmissions. I had a TPI 383 running a 125 shot in a G20 van that took out about 4 of them. 1 every 10K or so.

What let go? Were you using something like the hardened Sonnax sun shell?

The case lugs on one sheared right off, an input drum on one, and a planetary set on another. Lots of hard parts failures.
