ok so just wondering if anyone has tried the heavy duty u joints? And how much of a difference are they from the stock ones ?
Thanks

I broke one of the stock u-joints so I replaced it with a set of the heavy duty ones. Only difference is it's a bit thicker at the joint.

Here's a pic of the HD (left) u-joint vs stock (right). The HD version is noticeably beefier - more metal and larger pins.

My policy is to buy the heavy duty replacement if there's one available the first time I break a part. I'll pick them up if I break my stockers.

WOW!! ordering mine now - two sets of two I believe. I believe these will be great on reserve. I just ordered a Kraton V2 - can't get enough. HiTec 562/oz servo for the Big Joes for snow...

Yes sir. After a while there my hobby shop was going to give me a key. Best to assume breakage than wait for it. It's weird but that seems to work for me in a superstitious way. So far. - when I buy ahead and assume a break - it doesn't!! Let me stfu before something does break lol.

Im not sure with kraton... i had a stampede 4x4 now almost a slash couple more parts and conversion will be complete... and my xmaxx... i had trenchers on stamppy and i made tire chains for it and for back of xmaxx... i have a youtube channel with videos of all my trucks and some crap too... i have been slacking on videos latley and realy slacking on uploads but there are a fre of the arrmas... josh nortz is name of the channel check it out and follow me if you want to see all new stuff i put up. Im no pro but i have some good videos. We didnt get much snow last year so i was lucky enough to get away with no paddles but ive seen paddles on erevo and it ripped, so kraton should haul ass and fly thru the snow with 4 big paddle tires. Nero too. The trenchers are huge and i still have all the tirechains i made i will just need to adjust them a little and they will go on the 3.8 trenchers.
