Saggy balls
 
Well my indoor B44 started popping steering links off when clipping track markings, so I bought some new Associated rod ends.

Ran them last night and in each of my 3 races they popped again - worse than before!

I've now ordered new ballstuds in the hope this will cure it - but what are others using to prevent this?

Try the RPM ball cups, theyre a bit more heavy duty than the AE ones. Not got a part number to hand sorry.

It happens naturally as your balls get older. There's nothing you can do to stop it.

I heard if you soak them in vinegar it tightens them up a bit.

RPM rod ends fitted and no more problems I'm glad to report. Thanks for the input chaps.
