| sure it's missing screws?, the original kit came with mixed hardware and the honcho comes with full hex hardware so they will be a little different than yours. |

| My kit was missing 2 of the AXA435 M3x10mm tapping button heads, and I ended up up with a few AXA438 M3x18mm tapping button heads left over. I belive my shortage was discovered around Step 50. Same situation? |

| So Far I have one missing, or at least it wasn't where it was supposed to be. I am not very far into the build and the missing screw was one of the M2x6mm to install a shock reservoir. I borrowed one from another bag. It might be in one of other bags for all I know at this point. |

| I found the same thing on mine too. But I'll have it sorted. Bit average if it's this common though |

| Oh I'm missing a dozen or more! AndI love how the instructions were all screwed up, calling apart a certain # off a certain parts tree, only to find its on a differnt tree and number all together...they really screwed the pooch on proof reading and QC for actual parts count.... |

| Did you have the issue with Rod Ends too?? totally labeled wrong etc??Missing ALL my hardware to assemble the cage and bed, and no screw for teh radio box and a few others.. I emailed Axial late friday night, figure give them a chance to replace them. There was a day where I would have just hacked in Tamiya screws or what not, but, being 36, I've learned SOME patiance lol. That and I just have been beating my Lunchbox to death instead.....love that goofy bugger! |

| I just finished buliding my chassis and am ready for electronics and I was also missing some screws (AXA434 - M3x8mm hex socket tapping button head). I didn't have any of this type. Luckily my local hobby shop can get items next day if i tell him before lunch, so I just called him up and bought a 10-pack. I was going to call Axial, but didn't want to wait a week for them to ship me some from CA. They were only $2. I also noticed some of the part callouts were incorrect in the manual, but I figured it out. I was surprised to see these mistakes, but things happen. |

| I emailed back and forth with Axial and they are sending me a pile of screw hardware (I hope) to take care of mine. I also gave them a heads up on the mis identified parts in teh assembly manual.... honestly, if you find an issue,email them, so far, seemed very receptive to making things good! |

| i have never heard this before. does it seem only related to the "kits" or also the "rtr" models? so if you email/call do you have to provide some kind of "proof of purchase"???? cause i know they sell all the items too.. |
