thanks, Kevin

yeah, I know the losi ball-ends use a smaller ball - have them on my TCX, which were update to titantium, so I do have the standard HPI ball studs I could use

I know they were discontinued. I know I had an issue a couple of years ago, but I think I stock-piled a few bags. the nice thing, one bag could pretty much do a whole car

TOP uses 5.3mm ball studs - well, at least the Photon and Photon EX does - vs the 4.7 ball stud on the Spec-R
