I’m still a bit new to this, so I’m going to try to explain this with a few words, but let the pictures due the talking…

I’m having an issue with my ’11. The pin that holds the “dog-bone” to the “spindle” on the front of the car keeps moving, which causes things to “bind up” and the car loses its steering. See below…



In other words, #3 moves to the point that things get bound up…..



Hopefully the arrow shows this has moved and is binding up….



This is after I removed it from the car and shows how far this pin has actually moved. I’m not sure what to do with this as it has happened 3-4 times now (twice this last Sunday). I’m using thread locker (Losi) and am tightening these tiny little set-screws pretty darn tight.

Has anyone else had this issue? How did you fix it? I was considering “notching” a small area of the pin so that it couldn’t move once the set screw was in place…..

Help?
