SSD V2 Steering Link vs. VP / Incision Steering Link

[Ty@Tekin]

I would have just bent the first one, but glad it cleared up your issue.

I have a build started for my 6 year old and the incisions will go on his...win-win! But, you are right as were the other proposed mods. Pick and choose my battles, ha!

With some room to spare! Now I will say this, and I know SSD is lurking on this thread, the rod end design for the SSD link seems weaker than the Incision design. I am assuming these have been proven to be plenty strong?

Our rod ends have proven to be very strong.

Well my 6 year old used the bomber yesterday and ran it into something. Next thing I know, the SSD steering link is popped off with the set screws remaining in the link and the rod ends remaining on the C-hubs. Was able to screw the rod ends back on, but not sure these can handle my 6 year old, ha. Then again, most products don't last when a 6 year old gets a hold of it.

Where can I get more of these SSD rod ends in case they are / get stripped?

Easier solution to that problem is to not let a 6-year-old drive a hobby-grade, expensive RC. Give them an ECX Temper or some Redcat and they'll be happy.

What ever. My six year old drives a rc as well as the next dude,and has a lot more fun doing it. That's how guys with wife's justify buying this shat. Have one for the kid to, makes life just better

Happy wife happy life my dad always said, till my mom left him
