I too bought one of the $199 cyclones and bent one of the front axles the second time out. I ordered the same axles 61043(V1) for the front and 61044(V1) for the rear. I'm curious though as to why the original axles are 61396(V2), which fit both front and rear, and the heavy duty steels are 61398(V2).

The only information that I found is that the new 61398(V2) axle won't work with the old style cups(V1), but it doesn't say that old style axles(V1) will work with the new style cup(V2)?

Stormer doesn't have any of the axles in stock, but Omni Models list the 61034 and 61044 as direct replacements?

I sure wish Hot Bodies would have added some information with the kit to clerify this?
