Default Axial link swap ??

I got some bent links. Hunted down the right studs. But, the shock mounts just won't go over the round links. Can I force them on without breaking them, or is there a source for aftermarket ones? Do the Axial ones work?

Again thanks.

hmm id try using a little bit of grease to get them on, should slip right on then, just whip up the rest so your mounts dont slide.

ya just take a drill bit and make it a bit bigger. also depending on what links you got you might be over the 12.5 comp limit like i am. good luck post pics if you are still having problems.

Good luck
Brent
