broke 2 teeth off the spider gear...need advice well, I took off my rear cover on the crappy 10 bolt to check things, and im missing two teeth of my spider gear.
my plan is to have it last until winter, then after storing it install a 9" in the spring.
anyway, just wondering how I can change my driving to preserve the life of the gears. I've been hammering the **** out of it all summer until now. Obviously burnouts, downshifting, tail whips are out of the question, but should I keep it low rpms around corners, not press on the gas hard at all...?
its gotta last a couple more months, if possible.

to be honest you shouldnt drive on it at all whats going to happen is ur just going to keep breaking teeth off. i actually shattered a spyder gear right in half and i couldn't drive the car home. save your money buy a 9" , if it makes u feel any better i broke my car beginning of summer and its still on jackstands
