Senton Barely hit that curb…

[ThatGuyRC]

Rear Axle snapped on the senton, not too sure why. The hit was not that hard in my opinion. Did end up cracking my cheap hub too. Lmk what your thoughts on just putting super glue on the hub & calling it a day

Glueing might get you by for a few runs but I would order another hub asap.

"Barely hit the curb..."

Sir, I found your problem.
Just remove the first word in your title. And that's why your wheel behaved like that.

Sheshhhh….

Don’t glue anything. Replace only.

I feel as though thats a compliment

I guess when you put it that way.. yeah

I am getting replacements but I did glue it $40 tires off amazon, what could go wrong, right? these tires were mostly to mess around with. Yes, I know them breaking was my fault

Looks like it broke right where the pin goes through the axle shaft. The Traxxas Slash has the same weak spot. Just get a few spares and some extra pins. It should be an easy fix.

Get a pair of replacement steering knuckles from Integy, that axle stub is cheap from the factory but I have no idea where to get stronger ones. I just tore one clean off my vorteks just rocketing down the street.

I have a Slash, so I've broken a few. It looked exactly the same.

You might be able to swap the hub/axle from a larger rig? I'm sure it's been done.

Wow really? they need to make them out of stronger materials lol.

It probably could be done! Thats a greatidea! Maybe even kratons?
