Re: CIM limited to one direction

I suspect that when you mounted the CIMS, they somehow managed to be a few degrees out, this can cause a gearbox to seize and would explain your problems.

I'd dismount the CIMS from the tough boxes, test them, and remount. This will tell you if it's a problem localised to the CIMS, or your drive train.
