Came into an issue today with the caster front, stock drive shaft popping out. The cause of this was when under heavy braking on grass, the nose would dive down enough to make the angle of the dogbone tight enough for it to pop out.
This did happen twice before I did something about it.
I figured the reason was because the shocks were travelling too far at the front. So I took apart the two front shocks, and added a bit of old fuel tubing from my nitro's to act as a stopper. (around 10mm long, with old fuel tube, as it usually looses its elasticity over time & stiffer the better)
I did this to both shocks, and have used the buggy for atleast an hour after doing that slight mod, and they seem to be holding up!
However I have got some new hardened diff outdrives for the centre and front diffs on order with Russ @ FWM, as the centre were a bit chipped too.
Stocking up on mugen arms for a visit to the nene in a couple of weeks, though hopefully I won't need them as they're does usually tend to be huge rocks around the track
I have also ordered some mugen mbx6 wing stay mounts because I snapped one of those and having ali ones will be better because I usually use them to hold the buggy when walking somewhere.
Also some ali wing washers to replace the plastic (not broken, just prefer ali ones)
Some more velcro for the battery straps, and another set of EC5's for the new battery I will order very soon.
Check back in a few days for some more info.
