I don't have what you need... But might have a solution.

I recently needed bits like these for the HobbyKing BT-4 touring car. Tricky to get hold of, so I used some of these (not sure which (3mm, 4mm or 5mm), but I can take the relevant bit of the car apart to see if you want).

My son and I have been racing them for weeks now, no issues at all.

I've got a Durango DEX210 and DESC210 so can get the screwdrivers out to see if they fit snug in it if you want. Let me know.

Since on the durango the balls and holes for the hinge ends are very rounded I will see how the thread goes, and maybe take you up on this later. It's certainly cheaper :) Don't get those screw drivers out just yet, thanks.

Thanks, he's actually contacted me already, getting back to me later :)

Thread still open would prefer second hand / spare spares I guess. Depends of course.

Thanks

No need to get the screwdrivers out, and I was curious anyway. I tried to fit one of those plastic 4mm spacers into the "rear suspension hanger" (part 330344). The plastic spacer is just a fraction too big. Less than a minute with a needle file to chamfer one side, and I managed to get it to fit. The hinge pin is not as snug in there as with the original part (you can see the gap in one of the photos below), but it would be fine to use in an emergency.

Weekly bump.

I have a source for 8 of the parts in the UK new but I only need 2 and I firmly believe there is someone out there with a couple of spares they would be willing to part with So here we go :)

Also I only paid 75 for the whole RTR so I am loathe to pay £13 or whatever for the parts I need to upgrade RR hangar to alu, especially as I paid £15 for the RR hangar with other parts.

Durango owners, give me some balls!
