Default HPI D8s RTR - back shafts falling out all the time

I am new to this - not sure what the part even is - is a long bar and goes from the middle of the car to each back tire - is two of them - always falling out - can't got 20 minutes without one falling out!

From my best guess - is it the cup joint - plastic - that is the problem? Is there a metal upgrade or some what to get these to stay together?? Other than that car is working good but this is problem is ruining the car for me! Please help! TY!

If you are talking about the dog bones (the ones that spin with the wheels) then you can get the Hot Bodies D8 CVD, that ones won't fall out since they are captured on one end. Part Number is HDH6, search it on ebay.

Get CVD, but for now, use some hose on each end to keep the dogbones from moving side to side. That was how my JQ RTR came from the box.
