| Re: So this happened
Bummer!!! Wile I was testing I blew a cup apart and it was a mess...It looks worse than what it is ...did the outputs and bearing cups survive? I've been soaking my dog bones in red loctite over night then let them air dry to prevent the pins from moving...a alternative is to tap and install a set screw.. I've also thought about silver solder.... I'd clean'er out and slap'er back together! Oho and I wanted to mention that I picked up a couple 25mm Traxxas bearings at the LHS for 6$ for backups..

yea man I'm so mad right now. Not even about the truck breaking. More of just not the part I thought would go. I mean a stupid dogbone pin comes out and just about shaves down my vanquish. The funny part is that the truck was doing so well standing up to 6s run after that if a diff or bearing went I honestly wouldn't care cuz for one I have many spares and two I don't get mad if I get many packs through but a dog one pin does the truck in ahh and the fact that these rear ends are pretty extinct also. Cleaning it up now and hope the screws have some bite and no play. I'll try the red loctite soak like u say, we'll see.....first a gin n tonic.
