Shock rod ends...

[MrSweden]

Hello fellow revo racers!

I'm sorry for my poor spelling...

Has anybody experienced the same as me? My rear shock rod end keep falling lose from the shock rod. I´ve hade some bad landings.. I´ve tried to glue it back together but after only a slight inpackt it comes lose again. Can´t find the partnumber at traxxas partslist either. Have seen some aftermarket ones that are made out of aluminum, but to import them cost to mutch.

Best regards/
Andreas (sweden)

(EDIT) Thanks to you all! I´ve sent a mail to Traxxas support.

Here is a link that might help. Looks like you are referring to part numbers 5347 or 5460.

By the way, your English is as good as or better than half the people in Los Angeles...

Your English is much better then my Swedish
Traxxas will send you updated ends for free. Or you can look at the aftermarket units.
Have someone you know in the US or UK get a set for you and send them as a gift. They are small and will fit into a birthday card.

Not sure when my next trip to Copenhagen, Denmark will be but I know a bunch of Swedes come to the bars there. Anyway, it may be a while or I'd say I could help you out. Try some 5 minute epoxy and screw the rod end in before it sets up.

I'm pretty sure you get new ones for free through Traxxas, since the stock ones had that problem.

also is you are having trouble with them coming loose , put some blue thread locker on them , it works great

I´ve tryed superglued them back together but it takes only a small misslanding and its off again. But thanks anyway!
