Default DETC410 spool out drives

Hi I've just run the car for the first time, in the first round of qualifying I sheared a plastic spool out drive. Wondering if just to replace it with plastic or change to metal.
Any feed would be great ?

last time i raced mine, i broke 1 in every heat - due to other issues, mostly the car not going in a straight line on the straight and hitting the barriers, caused by the bottom of the shock unscrewing from the wishbone and me not noticing. so if you can get hold of the metal ones go for it.
or I'll sell you the ones on my car for £150 and throw in the rest of the car with the upgrades and spares for free.

Cheers for the feed back, I know what you mean, I am trying to stay positive about the car. This also happened to my car too, shock wish bone mounts unscrewed on the rear during the first few laps.

Yes, just get the steel ones. The aluminum axles seem to hold up well even with the steel outdrives
