Broken Hotbodies universal
While I was buying new chrome dog bones, I decided to upgrade to the Hotbodies mega travel drive shafts for front and rear.
Well, less than 2 1/2 tanks later, on gravel no less, the rear universal drive shaft blew out.
I definitely do not recommend this item. I will contact Hotbodies to see what they say. I'm sure they'll say since I ran it with 8 port, they won't warranty.
Disgusted.
PS This is on the Savage.

Broken Hotbodies universal
Anybody know an email address for Hotbodies. I went to their website, it just says under construction.
I did get an address off of Tower Hobbies, but I don't want to write a snail mail.
I want to either talk to somebody so I can whig out, or email.\
BTW, I took the Savage all apart again!!!! The center pin slipped causing the universal to come apart. I even checked to see if the lock screw was tight before I installed. Who knows????
I haven't decided if I want to try and find another pin (it's like the pins for the hex that your tires ride on but longer), or just put the old dog bone type on.
I still have car apart because my reverse module no longer goes into reverse. Maybe I'm just too hard on stuff
