Re: Gear beak in?
Bill,
You hear that service parts, that you buy from a dealership or aftermarket
supplier, are equal to or better than OEM parts. Whom is one to believe?
You also hear about "lemons", which could be a vehicle that was put together
wrong, or perhaps broken in wrong. Who knows? It does appear that the
"fine honing" is not 100% reliable.
I picked up my Honda Civic at the dealership, and drove it 800 miles in a
couple of days. It had been driven before that 200 miles from the
dealership in Colorado Springs to Fort Collins. I am sure that it was
driven at 75 mph, the speed limit on that stretch of I-25. I guess I got
lucky, or the parts were honed like you say.

Re: Gear beak in?
All I can tell you is installers stick to a break-in time. And I
can tell you of my Son's Brother-in-law had Jack Powell Chrysler of
Escondido, California change the ratio of his new Dodge. They didn't
have the time to break it in before a trip to Ocotillo Wells, toting his
Jeep inside his Toy Hauler: http://www.----------.com/jeeptrailer.jpg
Climbing our low road around Julian to Lake Henshaw it exploded taking
his ABS out too, at about hundred and twenty miles. The Stealership
found a way not to cover it.
Where do you think factory seconds go?

Re: Gear beak in?
Bill,
Enclosed trailers are the best kind, in my opinion. Unfortunately, there
are other things to do in life, besides play. You don't want your toys to
get rained on. Here we have a problem with marmots eating electrical wiring
too. I think this proves, that Darwin was not entirely right.
As for breaking in anything new, it is starting to seem like a good idea.
You just don't know, and it probably won't hurt.

Enclosed trailers are the best kind, in my opinion. Unfortunately, there
are other things to do in life, besides play. You don't want your toys to
get rained on. Here we have a problem with marmots eating electrical wiring
too. I think this proves, that Darwin was not entirely right.
As for breaking in anything new, it is starting to seem like a good idea.
You just don't know, and it probably won't hurt.
