They are ridiculously overpriced. You can get 8 for $6 of the Dhawk ones. Since you need 24, it's a little pricey.. $50 for pieces that should have come stock on a truck this size.

The Dhawk ones are steel. Axial ones are aluminum. Steel ones will hold up better |

Those are going to be a really annoying install/switch the more I think about it... | |

I use this ProTek RC "TruTorque" Shock Shaft Pliers [PTK-8267] | Maintenance - AMain.com - AMain.com They will install and remove pivot balls in a nano second. Too bad they are back ordered there might be different ones though. |
