big dee Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 Its worth a shot. But don't over do it cause the extra weight is not good. I had a re sx 18 that did the same thing and I used apoxy from the hard ware store and it worked fine. The subs still going strong. My freinds got it now and had no problems at all and he hammers it everyday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEvil Posted January 30, 2012 Report Share Posted January 30, 2012 glue the crap out of it MickyMcD - "Capable of making some serious trouser flapping volumes at where's-my-testicles frequencies, the Servo-Drives used to be fairly jaw dropping..." Any time you have have a power wire next to your frame put some rubber hosing (or cut up an innertube) around it. The wire is bound to wiggle (due to driving or flex) and the casing will eventually wear through. Hammerdown... 1% no links to outside websites, business related FB/YT pages allowed.
