Default Roll pins

Hi guys,can anybody tell me if I can get solid pins for the back wheels instead of roll pins. I've broken one tonight and put a piece of Allen key in just to get me by.

The factory team Associated pins work well in the front, yet are just a little loose in the rears but do not break or bend, i have been using these for a while.

Good call on the Associated.

I am currently running nortech front and rear pins, additional associated shim on the rear.

Before that I used Associated pins for 3 meetings to get me by. Although they din not look like a great fit, they worked faultlessly for me over 3 whole race meets.

On my last three cars I have used the Nortech pins and now I always use then during a build no matter what.

Cheers for the info guys, I'll give your ideas a try. I don't think the six cartwheels helped the roll pin when I flipped the car over!!!!!.
Hopefully TD will bring out there own hardened pins to replace the roll pins.
