The rapid loading and unloading of the sprag is what can hurt them. There is no true way to tell without pulling it out. I rolled a sprag. It cracked the case in boss where the sprag sits. It crushed all the springs and posts and broke two rollers in half lengthwise. I had to press the drum out because the rollers were jammed tight. If it would have released, it would have exploded. I back off the line because it was acting funny. It the drum is allowed to freewheel, it will spin approx 2 1/2 times engine rpm. Don’t play around, pull it out and check it. It is NOT hard to pull the guts out and look at it. Dont be intimidated by a 727. To access the sprag you will only disturb two settings. The bands, which are easy to adjust. Everything else comes out as components that can go right back. Pictures pictures pictures as it is before you pull parts out.
