Default temp djc fix

Someone at the track discovered this apparent temporary fix and maybe a reinforcing trick for the front drives. He had a broken internal ball/socket joint. The car was making a rattling/vibration noise. He put on additional heat shrink to hold the drive shaft side centered and drove a few laps and all was good.

Not sure how long this will hold up or that it will help strengthen the drive but I will have a better report after Sunday's race. It will put additional work load on the steering servo but I believe most are overkill on torque anyway.
