Hi Guys,
I have read a few times that people are concerned about the rear wheel pins bending,snapping with the use of modified motors.
I got one of the very first 410's in my country and replaced the pins with Hot Bodies 1.7x11mm pins before i even drove it and never had an issue.
I have got the 2010 kit and the 2mm driveshafts seem to have a small hole by a whisker and the hot bodies pins are a nightmare to get in and out and to the point where they snap trying to get them in and then your stuck with a broken pin in your driveshaft, so this makes the changing of hubs and arms the worst job.
My question is, these pins that come with the 2010 kit seem to me to be revised to a stronger material and there longer, is anyone breaking these or bending them. If so what is a easy solution as I run 5,5 motors through mine.
Thanks,
JK
