I had bought one for my kid and within an hour the front dif was exploded. What I did was took the stock Axial locker (round aluminum one with pin through middle) filed out the axle slots a bit and it fit right into the creeper housing. Haven't had a problem since. I also had prob with breaking pins in front axle. Repaced pins and heat shrunk around the big part of knuckle.

And that, my friends, is why I got the aluminum carriers right off the bat. along with Al knuckles, C-hubs and rear lock outs. Finished off with TRAXXAS d-shafts and hardened yokes. One of these decades a kit will actually come out built solid the first time ... but then there'd be no fun in that now would there.
