Get the newer style outputs that have the pin through design. Then buy screw pins. The old set screws are just not up to task. Once it starts falling off, the diff outdrives start to wear grooves so it fall off a lot more often. These for the trans http://www.rcslot.com/mm5/merchant.m...w=&range_high= Buy this for the through pins. http://www.rcslot.com/mm5/merchant.m...w=&range_high= |

The drive shaft pops off the universal? What shafts are you running? Post up a pic. |

i had this problem for a while. when i started using steel yokes on both ends it was less often, then i lowered my rigs ride height and it hasn't happened since. if your driveline angle is too steep, it'll pop the shaft off the yoke. hope this helps
