i put the commment in the wrong place, now i see what i did. lol this what i meant. I got them from Amazon. The next set I'll buy will be stiffer strings. Now, mind you I put them on because I launch over 100'. And trying to have less body slap and catch the weight of the car from bottoming out. I thought it was going to be have shitty handling driving it. But as I write this I would almost say it helps the handling. I'm going to pay more attention if what I said was right. Thanks for the question and. Comments. The spring on Amazon was: uxcell Compression Spring - 1.2mm Wire Dia , 18mm OD , 50mm Free Length Spring Steel Extension Spring,Black,20Pcs I'm not sure if it is still the right move. But I haven't had a reason to remove them... Have fun.

That advice u gave on screws which i assume u meant "HEX" screws imo isnt useless. I learneds from it, and I am grateful u covered that. I have many issues with bent and broken "driveshafts" but every truck has its "weakest link". I have gotten frustrated with the lack availability of replacement parts from companies outside USA. Hence I usually opt to collect Arrma or Traxxas. It all depends. Great video. TY n happy trails.

i appreciate your checking out the channel. it sucks not being able to get parts. i would assume you looked at my vid about the driveshafts' popping out. the drive shafts are to short. removing the red ring and washers help it from popping out. i went to the extremes and ground off about a 1.5 mm off the ends where the red ring was. i have a video explaining this.; I been turning wrenches all my life, even got to turn wrenches with a couple professional mechanic from back in my motocross days.... The videos... well... not so much. i been doing this hobby for 4-5 years, but making a video is like virgin territory for me. Im hoping they will get better as time goes by. I hope you get parts service gets better with time for you. Have Fun ps. yes hex screws. lol

The red ring as you call it, reinforces the end of the arm from breaking apart . The problem is you need to adjust the droop screw to stop over extension of your shocks and pulling the dog bone out. Edit : And I came back to do an edit. My edit is I'm not being an ahole just stating a fact.
@readeracingRC
@readeracingRC 4 месяца назад
You set your droop screws to set the arm from dropping to far and breaking the piston. T he driveshaft is to short. it need to be about 1.5mm longer. they didnt take into account when they added the red ring. i have never seen an end blow out with or without the red ring. i think it was a bling to make it look better. but that my take on it.
