Default Flying dog bones

After a few crashes my front dog bones started to come out. Now they fall out even with a minor collision. Checked suspension and didn't see anything broken or bent. I race in stock class so can't install anything different. Anyone know what part I need to replace to stop it from happening?

Try putting a couple of O-rings on the inside of the cup to keep them more centered.

Tried that. It didn't work.
Something on the suspension is flexing more then it should.
I also tried switching rear cups and dogbone to the front, but it didn't help.

Having the same problem. Getting over it, and want to move on.

Have shimmed the slop out of the front hubs, but not sure what else to do.

Finally got everything for my kit, turn to page 1, and see that it says I should have Tamiya Instant Cement for rubber tires.

Is there a alternative to the Tamiya brand that works well so I don’t have to wait a month for it to arrive from Japan?

Get any tire glue. It will hold better. Don't forget to clean and scuff the rims and tires.

Just got this motor and ESC in the mail, and I assumed that it would come with a 17.5 tooth pinion, which it did not. My TT-02 kit came with a 19 tooth pinion. Will this work?

How would you have a half tooth pinion?

Hmmm that’s a good point, I misunderstood what the 17.5T stands for. Will the 19 tooth pinion work?

yes, any pinion will "work". 17.5t is how many turns the motor is.

Just got the TT02 to race in the upcoming TCS Pro spec class at TQ in May. I saw the class running at 702 last week and regretted not getting it sooner. Any of you running it by chance?

Seems like quite a few are running the tt02 r or rr.

I actually got the RR - seems like its the same as the R except for the blue chassis. It has all the main upgrades but I ordered a few more while staying within TCS rules, like the aluminum steering, motor heatsink, etc. To bad TCS doesn't allow the screw upgrade from the S... not so much for the weight savings but so that I don't have to use a Phillips screwdriver. I'll run this in our local USTG class to see if it is competitive. I'm very new to Tamiya in general. I know they have the 'pro' 419 chassis but that is to expensive for me since i'm in it mostly for fun and as a hobby. Hopefully this TT02 will be good enough to use in the USGT class.
