22-4 reliability?

[SOSx]

How are people finding the reliability and strength of these?

Reading on RCtech the US guys seem to be suffering a lot of broken hing-pins and arms in particular. Are the uk runners finding this or are the big air tracks the US guys make just more punishing?

So far so good here although I have broke a shock tower. It was a inverted landing from a good height at pretty high speed and I think good enough to have broken any car. TLR are recommending we leave out the hinge pin grub screws as a work-around for the early hinge pins which they think are over-hardened. The hinge pin snaps in half where the grub groove is and this leaves the front wishbones only supported at the very front. They then snap when the car gets a bump or some such thing. Mines only been on track a little bit so far but I am impressed with it. Out tmrw at West Bridgeford on carpet so fingers crossed.

I would say there was more then one or two at maritimes last club night.wish bones and hinge pins.
the temp cure is the ones off one of the sc trucks

Or just use a regular 22 hinge pin...

Ive ran mine on wet astro 5-6 times and only a rear shock tower , happened just like simons

hey, I hit the wall on the back straight in the Swansea club, and broke a wishbone and hinge pin. Right on the grub screw groove. Dropped one in from my 22.

Was going to pick up another 22-4 one tomorrow, but if its a problem part, i might leave the 22 one in for a while.
