Hey axial guys...
I might have a solution to the driveshaft popping off issue.
I used to have a revo, and the way they connect the outputs to the axles isn't your typical "pop the crosspin" in there by stretching the plastic.
You have a center steel square with 2 holes drilled through it.
You insert this into the metal U-joint coming off the tranny.
Then, you take a pin with a hole drilled in the center and insert it through the U-joint and the block.
After that, you take a solid pin and run it through the driveshaft, through the block, and through the pin with the hole and run it out the other side.
Then- and this is the part that may help the most- you secure that final pin that goes through the metal driveshaft with two e-clips. So it can't pop off, especially if you shoe-goo those e-clips on.
