I did replace my hinge pins with Xray pins after snapping one. Never had a problem with the shocks. Always silky smooth.

I just go in from the backside with a reamer and make one soft turn. It makes them perfect.

If you get a chance give it a try.

If you are using the standard 6 cell rubber chassis then use the Medium High roll centers.

Peeps it was a real treat to see this car with this setup in action this past weekend and I don't even drive a Photon...yet It is MONEY!!!

Did you mislabel your roll centers on there. I thought you told me you were running high/lows not low highs?
