Default Losi Cups - A6015

Anyone using these, aka are they suitable? Had a new set of the black ones, but err don't know what I've done with them.

Durango got built prob 4/5 weeks ago (track work and Tamiya distractions!) and err I haven't run it yet and still need to change the ball cups and balls studs.

What part number are people using for the ball studs, heard schumacher ones?

Default Ball cups

I would say the losi ones wouldn't fit as they will be imperial sizes I could be wrong , I have heard people use both schumacher and kyosho but have replaced both ballstuds and cups at the same time. I still have durango, I have to admit the do pop off quiet often so do need sorting

Valid point, I know that a Durango owner at TORCH has replaced the turnbuckles, ball cups and balls studs all to Schumacher ones.

However I'm trying to keep the cost of replacing the turnbuckles down.

Indeed, I'm not even taking it racing until I've changed them. If I adjust anything like the camber etc. they pop off. Yes I've greased them etc.

It would be cheaper just to buy the Kyosho ball cups
