RE: Official Nitro Evader ST Thread v2.0
Oh one other thing, I was havin some fun doing donuts on the tar today and ballooning one tire in the air while the other side sat still, looked awesome... till I snapped the little pin in the CV joint on the tire end of it. (you know the ball part, not the one connected to the diff) There is that little allen wrench thing inside the ball, and the pin was gone. I acutally think it might have just SPUN out because I had the wheel ballooning like crazy and the allen wrench nut seemed kind of loose. So what I did was cut a small body cotter pin to length, place it in the slot and tighten that allen wrench screw in on it. It seemed to be thinner than should be, but I think it will hold. Anyone else ever have this situation?
Oh.. about that 90 bumper to bumper thing... does that cover those CV joints and the exaust and the shocks? I obviously busted the CV joint, and the exaust popped off on a rock and got dented REAL bad (car landed on it sideways). Also two shocks have blown gaskets and I refilled one by using some oil / oil seals out of my old electric... the oil is WAY too thick and so were the seals but it got in running again...
