Default Creeper build problems

Well yesterday i bought my venom creeper and started working on it. all was great untill i realized i was shorted one bearing (no big deal, had a spare) but they did short me a tranny plug for the motor adjustment hole :/
other than that i am happy with the build.

Also i don't know if it is me, but the metal outputs break really easily, ever easier than the plastic drive line.
I'm going to have to shell out 50$ for some mip ones i guess.
And also, do you know if the AX10 Drive lines will fit the creeper?

And i hate the residue duct tape leaves

Louis,
Venom-Group has very good customer support. PM
CrawlingAround. There was abatch of stub axles that were
over heat treated and Venom is aware of this. I had one snap
along with a few other peeps. Venom had mine delivered very
quickly. My kit also came w/o tranny plug and they sent it out too.

I have had three of them brake already, one of them i managed to fix by drilling it out and welding in a new ball joint part. And when they break its nothing special, ill just be crawling (even up my couch) And one will just break.
