Today I broke my left drive shaft.
I have been adjusting my slipper with my new gears and was wondering if that might of had something to do with it?????????:depress:
 
What car?

A slipper is to allow the tranny to slip. This is a great feature when you jump often. That way when you land and your slamming the gas, it helps to prevent stripping internal gears. Now if you have it tightened down I would think you are just doing it for drag purposes. Anything else you are due to damage the transmission.

As far as your drive shaft, I am not sure. Its possible.
 
well depending on the way you go and what the weakest point of the drivetrain is

yes its possible but unusual
 
I have a nitro rustler

What would be a good setting for the slipper(I have a motocross track and jump lots)
