the dsm curse

owned the evo for almost 10 months now, and i haven't had one month or driveability without a problem. between trannies and transfer cases..... current problems are as follows:

cut abs line
broken rotor
bad axle

so does anyone have these things for sale? all for the front drivers side.

You may want to post in the wanted section.
Good luck with it, part of the reason I bought mine new.

It all depends on how the Evo is driven. If you beat on any car, everyday, all day long **** is going to break. I bought mine used at 30,000 miles and I'm at 40,000 with no problems

yea i think once you get any used 4g63, youre gonna come across the DSM curse sooner or later.. but in reality, these cars are made to be drivin hard.. and sometimes things break... fix it n keep BOOSTIN..
