Most c-hub cars that I know of have 10 pins:
4 go into the lower front a-arms
2 go into the upper front arms
4 go into the rear lower a-arms
My guess is that the other 4 are actually shock shafts, or they are just extras.

No is not the screw on the front and rear hub,i tried to put them there but the pin doesn`t go through the flanged balls.Also they are not there as spare parts because they are different size (smaller)than all the other pins on the kfactory kit.Any other ideas maybe???????????

The most likely other thing I can think of besides shock shafts would be the lower bolts that hold the shocks to the suspension arms. Other than that, I have looked through the entire manual for a Kyosho MP777 SP2, and the only other places where threaded steel rods are used are:
- Steering rod between servo and steering rack
- Steering rack uprights
- Chassis torque bars
- Brake/throttle linkages
- Tie rods
- Hinge for battery box

I checked yesterday and they are not for the bottom of the shocks,but then i had an idea to check on the front c-hub and on the rear c-hub of my mp7.5 rtr and they fitted just fine.I don`t know how this can happen i can understand about the rear c-hub bc i put the racers edge rear hubs on my mp777 and their holes are kind smaller but i can`t understand why they fit on the front c-hub of my mp7.5 and they don`t on the front c-hub of my mp777 SP1.Thanks a lot guys for all the help.
