It sounds to me that he's got a bad mechbox (ie. out of spec) and things are not aligning properly.
- The mechbox crapped out on him in like 2000rnd in the stock form before he upgraded.
- Went through 3 sets of gears so improper installation seems a bit unlikely (in atleast one case) or he really has no idea what he's doing.
- The gear teeth were folding over which means they probably weren't 'biting' enough of each other which points to mechbox being misaligned.
- The titianium piston wore down the sector gear very fast (improper meshing) is another suspect of misaligned mechbox.
- Wrecking quality parts on a moderate spring very fast.
Sounds to me that he's just got a lemon mechbox. Doesn't matter how strong your parts are; if they don't fit together right it won't work properly.
