Okay guys I have a set of HCT hinge pins I was going to use on my MGT build. My problem is they have no grooves for an e-clip. I can't figure out how one is supposed to keep them in the A-Arms? I have researched online but, only found one other listing form this same problem. The other person made rederence you have to use a set screw to hold them in place. If anyone has had this issue please let me know.
 
I know nothing about this truck but have worked quite a bit with suspension block setups. Are you referencing the inner or outter pins (or both)? If the pins are flush against the arm and there is a screw hole next to where they go in just get a washer and put it around button head to caputure them on both sides. If the inner block is alum thread lock it.

It is the A Arm pins upper and lower. The MGT stock uses a scew in style like the MAXX series trucks. These are just straight pins without E-clip slot's on the hinge pins. I am thinking that HCR made a special set of hinge pin stay's that were threaded for a set screw.
