Landing RCs at weird angles; one tire at a time, this will test a part's durability. Continually doing this, and your luck will run out eventually. After bringing the ST into the garage, I noticed the plastic cups on the camber links were a little wonky looking.


No wonder, I only had a couple of the turnbuckle's threads inside AE's ball cups that were too short. Chalk another "what were you thinking" moment up for me. I never really liked stock Associated ballcups. Rummaging through pit box, it was time to use up new old stock Losi/Duratrax parts. Now I have a hodgepodge of ball cups holding my front end together. Losi, Duratrax, and RPM all working together for the cause.
