Thanks

Hi all,
My SSG turns a year old this month and i have been more than happy with it the past year of racing. I really do not have any major complaints except for a few things.
I run both front and rear diffs, and ever since ive had this kit i noticed that i regularly snap the long screw that tightens the diffs. I double check and make sure that i build them correctly every time, also making sure that it is well lubed and set not too tight or too loose but still i snap them. Can anyone recommend me a replacement part that is more durable? or are there any tips you recommend to avoid this from happening?
Also, i know the king pin issue (working its way loose) has been adressed on here. Do you recommend using alum carriers or do they bend and wear easy, creating play. Any tips i could try out to make them stay on? thanks in advance.

We have been running the new lightweight kingpins and they fit very nicely, also they have not been coming loose at all. Perhaps you could use just a very small drop of lock-tight on the kingpins to secure them better.
