been a couple of years since I did this last: you might have a small mis-alignment on the shafts which could cause the tooth wear. Or you are smooshing the elastomeric spacer from over torque. 13K ain't too bad however. I'm Jealous.
13,000 mile checkup on Yugo
I put my Yugo up on the hoist today and noticed quite a bit of wear in my shaft coupler..
Looks like I should have used a better lube on it. The teeth on both gears are getting very thin.
Will post pictures when I get it apart. The roads are too snowy now to drive it, so will pull the motor and check brushes also.
DC motor torque is awesome, even for a 8HP motor.
