Thick paper clip would probably do for now.

If that doesn't work I think I have some old rusty (rustler) pins that you can have. Not sure if I have them and still not sure if I'm going tomorrow, but if I do go and I do have them, they are yours.

you can also use a body clip. just have to cut a small section of it off that you want to use.

You beat me to it! That is exactly what I do. I use my Dremel tool to cut a thick body clip to the right size. By the the time I sold my HPI RS4 MT, it was full of body clip pins. They worked better than the stock pins!

Those stupid pins are the only thing I hated about my RC10GT. I didn't break them though, they would actually spin and strip out me wheels. I cannot count the number of wheels I would strip with brand new tires on them. Too much traction and something had to give. That was even with the slipper set fairly light.

I used to cut metal hangers up into little pins....haha...like 100 pins per hanger.

MikeV, do you have the xxxnt with the blue body and the aluminum arms that was at the track last night?

no i have the grey/black/pink one that was usually on it's back from last night

Err yeah IDK where I got blue from but I remember your truck! You need to make the front wheels stand more vertically via the upper arm (tie rod), unscrew it some until they are straight up and then turn them back in 1-2 turns so they lean in just a little. It will help.
