Try find something round and a bit smaller and press it over.

Recently I posted some pics on the www.Tamiyausa.com

about the plastic outdrive cups. I dremmeled the slots so 3mm plastic blades would slide and now I have the blades against the outdrive instead of the pin eating the plastic away.I ran all day Sunday testing with 4.5 and all looks good however the Tamiya blades are fragile due to the plastic and cracked. I then switched to XRAY ones which needed a bit of trimming but held up all day no problem. I will be updating the pics tonight on TamiyaUSA..

I use a similar technique, only I use a spare 15x10 bearing. Works like a charm!!!
