Ok here is the deal I as going some crawling and busted the front drive coupler. It is white fiberglass type thing. Cracked into three peices. What can I do to fix this. Should I just permently glue this into place?

Get a piece of copper water pipe that has a inside diameter slightly smaller than the piece, shave down the sides a bit so it's a snug fit and slide it all together, possibly using some glue. It will never break again. I used a piece of pipe that was laying in my basement, so I can't tell you exacly what it is.

$150 for all my nylint crawler stuff which includes 1 crawler with a TT, rear motor relocated, shock work for articulation, siped tires with spare set, 2 batterys, 1 body with modded roll cage for more real look and lightened seats and the other body has full cash/money top and carbon fiber flame job with headlights and the whole other parts truck which is all there too. i also have upgraded parts such as gen 4 axle and outputs that the wheels bolt to and other misc.

I am going to do the copper tube thing. I got it glued back together. Actuly my father did. Left the parts on the table over night went back the next day and he had them back together. Now just to find the copper tube. I want to have my Scoripion back up and running.

Sorry, I don't have any pics (it was a trail repair on my friends jeep, don't ask how I happened to have the pipe with me). All I can tell you is that I found 2 types of pipe in my basement, one thin wall and one thick wall. The thick wall is what I used. Other than that, it's just the regular water pipe that is used in houses. Good luck.

Here's a link to another guys thread who had what I think is the same problem you're talking about. There's pics that might help.
