FunFactor Broken Front Diff. Case (Noob tip)
Sorry to keep starting new threads...I want to share this with you guys!
The first day I had my FunFactor I broke the front diff. case where the upper control arm mounts and swings on a pin. The car is basically useless with this piece broken!
I used some Steel Epoxy...it broke...I used some "JB Weld" that held for a day...then broke...Then I tried something I though would NEVER hold...and it has been holding for a gallon of nitro and some minor jumps. I used "Crazy Glue New Improved Gel Formula"
The package says "sets instantly", I let it sit overnight!!! Also there was quite a bit of surface area to glue to from the JB weld that was still stuck on there.
Just wanted to share this with you guys so you can get your FunFactors up and running again faster! Sorry is this is a re-post!
P.S. Glue sets instantly on skin!

Bootmachine... There is a reason I keep that in my pit box... I have used it on the lower a-arm of my 20 year old USA-1 nitro Crusher when I smacked a curb... broke the end that connects to the c-hub... Its funny, I forgot about that and this was almost a year ago and its still working fine...
