The lower pins are shorter than the upper pins. You may have gotten a set of uppers by mistake.

thats not the case because they ARE shorter then the uppers,they are about 3/16" of an inch too long for the bottoms though.....

Are they unusable? You could put the e-clip on the front, then a few washers on the back before putting the clip on. That would keep it from sliding forward on you and getting hung up on junk when you land and stuff.

i figured it out rcsuperstore on ebay sent me two sets for the lower front and none for the lower rear,they are slightly longer in the front,i may try to shim them till i get the right ones though.thanks again

If their integy's pins, then I'd suggest buying something else anyway. The bend pretty easily then they get stuck.

Another tip is to find a spot on the bulks to drill and tap a 2.5mm hole for a grub screw to hold the pins. Those e-clips go bye bye pretty quickly and your stuck with a pin hanging out or lost.

You can kind of see what I'm talking about here:

I don't have the maxx anymore and I didn't keep any nice high-res pics of most of the "mods" that I did to it.

If you notice towards the top right, you can see the hole I did for the top hinge pins.

That's an ACNCM bulk.
