Integy alloy gearbox case

Recommended Posts

Just halfway through a rebuild of my baja and found the gearbox case filled with cracks, so am looking to upgrade it but on a limited budget and think will have to go with the integy case as cant find any others that are in the same price range.

Are the cases any good or should i look for a used alloy case from another brand ? And if i should go with another brand which one ??

Avoid Integy at all cost. Their alloy in general terms is far to weak for application purposes, for bling it's fine, for bashing it's terrible. Turtle is the only way to go.

I've never had a problem with the stock plastic case TBH. What sort of power are you putting through it?

 

defiantly isn't coz of the power only running 27.5cc with dom pipe looks like something was misaligned/loose after my last rebuild and cracked the case but it was already showing signs of wear and tear the last time i took it apart

Hmm integy.

I have the rear shock supports and front brace from them and really couldn't see why people hate integy so much! Those 2 bits (v2) fit great and are made well. Nice alloy too.

Then I got a front shock brace (v3) made of cheese and didn't fit.

No more integy for me. I'd liken them to GPM. Some bits are great, some are only fit for the bin.

I certainly wouldn't trust their tolerances in a gearbox.
