Default Un-Bendable pivot balls hyper 7

I just tried a set of [link=http://www.rezoomrc.com/]REZOOMS[/link] alloy unbendable pivot balls and they are just that!My h7 pcr took a real beating yesterday(3 heats and a 20 min main) and i didnt bend one.Thats a first for me.I think i'll send a few sleeves to them also.They seem to have quality stuff.

The h7 rtr has a c-hub suspension setup.The pbs stands for pivot(pillow)ball suspension.I like the pbs setup because its much quicker to change the camber/toe settings at the track.Just reach an allen wrench through the spoke wheels and screw or unscrew the pivot balls to change your settings.The only thing i didnt like was the ball shafts kept bending and it would kill my steering.But not any more

did you order them straight from the company, or did you find them at a hobby shop?

I ordered them from the company.I sent them an email asking about shipping etc.They seemed really nice.The guy's a machinist.Builds rods or pistons or something for nitro funnycar motors.He races buggies for a hobby and started making his own upgrades.I sent a money order for $30 to the address and in less than a week they came in the mail.I scrounged up 8 more bent ones from my junk pile and gonna do the trade in thing for $15.They ship for free.Says they are working the bugs out of an adjustable torsion bar suspension upgrade!Hope i'm the first to get one.
