Is it pretty normal that rod ends breaks on all bumps and jumps? What do you use as metal replacement?
Team Associated 81399 RC8B3 Rod Ends 4 mm. To make the rods short enough I had to cut the rod end down where the rod threads in. I cut like 1/4 off. I had to buy 3 sets to do the whole Ryft. 2 in each pack are of set, I put them on the lower front rods to gain a little ground clearance. Other 2 offset ends I put on rear rods at the top of the rear axle housing. You use the balls out of the stock ryft arm ends. 8 batt packs no breaks.
