Paxton Woes!

Recommended Posts

The most common failure in a Paxton ‘SN’ supercharger is a failed planetary drive…

This can involve as many as …..?….. parts.

1) two…..2) five…..3) seven…. or…..4) eight

I'll say #4, eight parts because I think there are 5 balls, plus the ball driver, and two races. (if the output shaft surface is damaged, that would be another item to replace.)

Paul you are correct with EIGHT… however, you need to include the output shaft as a definitive part of the assembly, whereas the ball driver is not.

A driver, five balls, output bearing, two outer races, maybe the scroll housing and impeller.

You’ve ‘hit’ the eight key pieces, but need to leave out the ball driver, scroll, and impeller.
