Hello all, 

I think this would be the best place to post this but let me know if it should go into another forum. I was cleaning my rear sprocket (Sunstar 3679) and I noticed a crack between the teeth that runs through to both sides. I don't really think it's the best idea to chance using it anymore, probably best just to get a new one. 

What is the best sprocket on the market these days?

What do you think of JT sprockets? Also what do you think about steel vs aluminum? I imagine the carbon steel would hold up better in the long run, but you get the benefit of less weight with aluminum.

Oh nothing, I just like to see all of my options and understand the difference in materials, heat treatments, coatings etc. I'm a metalography/materials technician so I guess it's first nature to look at those kinds of things. 

Why would someone choose aluminum, looks?

I used the aluminum rears when I was grudge racing. Just less rotating weight.

Go with the Driveline. You won't regret it.
