The steel CVDs are way, WAY stronger than the aluminum ones.

what's the part num for steel shaft..
can't seem to find them...think i'm overlooking something.

i bent an aluminum one this weekend and my front arm exploded like a toy prize in a cracker jack box (got the wide bumper on).....but the car is just awesome....handles like a fox chasing a chicken

Do y'all use the set screw and the e-clips on the rear hubs and c-hubs or just one? Do your hubs bind when you use both?

I just heard someone else mention this the other day. I use both, and haven't noticed any binding, but I guess I'll check again next time I've got the car together.

I use both... as long as the pin is in the center, there is enough room that the e-clips will not bind. I learned after one of my set-screws came loose in a race and the pin started to rub the rim - causing the car to run like it had a bad corner of bearings (hook stearing).
