Did any of you have problems with the rear shocks losing the lower post? Mine popped off the first day.

shocks or mounts?
If the shock mount stripped out you will need larger/wider screws.
if the shock itself snapped call Axial. They will send a new pair right out.

No it's the bottom support bracket. It's plastic. See the photo

I didnt have that problem with the stock setup, but do have it with my modified one. Upgraded mine to longer shocks / links with the same stiffness springs. I plan to put a dab of CA on to hold those lower mounts in place, but not enough to fully seal it to the lower shock links so I can remove them later.

Anyone have a better solution aside from tightening the spring nut?

Yes I think just tighten the shock tension nut and it should hold....maybe I am wrong. Seems an easy fix. Or run without springs..hehehe

if your talking about how to hold the spring cup on and keep it from popping off, just drill a hole in it and run a small zip-tie through it and around the spring itself. Comp rigs have to do it all the time!

you can also use heat shrink to hold it on. when i was running losi shocks on my old rig i used the heat shrink trick and it worked great
