|  Time for Aluminum parts..
So after crawling at Battle Creek Park in MN I have come to the conclusion that I need aluminum parts. I managed to break a C-Hub and then after getting a spare from HossDoggy I managed to snap a Knuckle on the same side of the axle. FTW  plastic parts !!!  Snapped the bottom ear off the C-Hub  |

So I got all the new parts at the LHS. I cant believe the difference in how this thing drives with the Universal axles. I made a slight modification to the Lockouts too...Instead of reusing the stock screws I drilled out the axle tubes and tapped them to accept 6-32 Stainless Screws, then I tapped the Lockouts themselves. My theory behind this is that the screw stops spinning when the head bottoms out on the lockout, instead of being able to keep tightening and stripping out the axle tube. Axial Universals STRC C-Hubs STRC Knuckles STRC Lockouts   |
