I have some b44 plastic hubs that seem to have less issue. But my kid use 1.5 deg alum hubs and they dont make a plastic 1.5. She broke on the practice lap tonight, but the RD let her run my b4 in the main. She didnt do as well, but I told her to not break my buggy, lol. So she singled everything.

The aluminum hubs are less forgiving when hitting things. Sound like she's hitting the pipe and/or landing on that wheel more than others. I have broken ball studs, but it was after landing on the rear wheel awkward or hitting something.

I've asked the same question a few pages back and no one seems to respond. I went out and ordered a ton of AE springs but they're not the ones I seem to need. I did however run the stock pistions with AE GRN (FRT) and AE WHT (RR) and it seemed to work fairly well. I still want to try the AE GRN (RR's) as that's what I believe everyone on clay maybe running.

Run a little extra toe on the inner pivot (3.5 degrees) if you want the truck to be more forgiving.

I run the de racing +3mm boreggo rims. They look bad a$$ and give the truck a little more stable.

yeah, I am going to get some b44 hubs for her and use more in board toe on her truck. I run the plastics on my t4 and no issues. I think there is too much play around the bearing in the hub.
