Mine not only broke.... They shattered!!!

Appeared to me like they were over hardened. No bends anywhere, just crumbled dust packed in the cup

Mine still broke. It took a tumble off the side of a rock and landed just right (or wrong ).

Mine haven't broke yet, I just always drive straight and avoid all turning.

I have had mine for about 2weeks,with 1 week of running. Losi B9553 Exceloron 17.5 w/15t pinion,1300mah 3s with no breakage or heating of anykind. EPA's on steering set at 85%,dig set at 33%. Hitec 7955TG on steering,Hitec 5245MG for dig. Still box stock as far as no added grease or removed shims. Drivetrain is not noisy and is very smooth.

if you limit your epa's then they will not break unless your like me and like to get into some tight places. the rock always ends up pushing my steering past my epa's then mine too not only break, they shatter.

My Uncle builds aftermarket parts for 1:1 and they had the same problem. Now he's up to 4340 chromoly birfields for Dana 60's. Surely MIP or somebody is working on super strength axles for these.....aren't they?
