oops sorry I mistakenly voted, I blame my sleepy-ness!
But I think they are belt driven and chains tend to last longer which is pretty obvious if you think about it

I read somewhere that the chains dont last forever and they do tend to need replacing. (on some vehicles)
Is this true? Last edited by BackInBlack; May 9th, 2009 at 01:26. |
