Chris is this true? You can use these knuckles on the creeper?

The Venom aluminum c-hub option parts for the AX can fit the Creeper. Hasnt been tried here but the spacing is close.

If they are made to fit the AX-10 they prolly dont have a zero ackerman angle and youre Creeper wont turn as sharp as it would with the stock knuckles

Has anybody tried this yet? I broke a c-hub last night and would like a replacement asap. Since the stock venom parts won't be available 'till mid april, I need to ind alternate parts.


***Edit***
I just got an email from Venom Customer Service, they are sending me replacement parts.

sometimes you can get it to work for a short while with a soldering iron. plastic is smelly, so have a fan or lots of wind. i havent tired on any of venoms parts, they are a very hard plastic.

infact, i had to use a servo saver soldered solid, but i couldnt find the right size arm and i have been running it for weeks now! its ugly, but works perfect.

I have the same problem, mine cracked last weekend right across the top side. It's still kinda holding together but I can see the crack in it. Now that some one else has had the same problem im wondering if this is going to be on of week link parts. Like the lockers.
