this is a common problem with the rustler and is fixed with aluminum castor blocks. even in stock form the pins are allowed to bend and I've heard the rpm blocks make it worse. so go for the aluminum blocks and that should solve the problem.

i agree. im going to order the trx casters. i got 4 new pins coming with e-clips. but i bet once the aluminum casters are on, i wont need to put a new pin in any more.

...sounds like a plan. I just went with those because I don't like e-clips--lol!
