ah snoop... thank you for that link.. So I need to drill out my 12mm hexes to fit the losi parts and my 2.2's will still work.. right? Looks beefier... concerned about the steering a little bit... But if its bad, i would just have to fab up some new steering arms...

Weird this thread pops up again today. I just smashed a stub axle cup on my WK, and wanted to see if I could find some CVDs :P

I've broken quite a few in my BL WK. I'm trying to get everything up to CVD's but.. $$ is a little short right now.

You guys are breaking axle cups? Thats odd, they seem pretty beefy. I haven't had a problem there, but I did manage to snap an axle housing in two, along with several R/P's. Maybe I'm not bashing hard enough?

T.D.
