    If your using RPM suspension arms, that's your problem. They flex too much.

    Also, if could be that you have your push rods mounted in the innermost hole. You can't do that with CVD's.

    You need the deeper drive cups designed for the extended wheelbase suspension- part 5153r:

    Ones further out so that the suspension isnt jacked up so high- raised suspension means the cvds are pulled further out from the drive cup, level suspension means they are pushed further in- I would get the longer drive cups, will solve your problem for certain ( assuming the cvds dont start binding due to the extreme angle that is ).

    NO worries.

    Are your TRAXXAS steel CVD's bent a little bit? If mine get bent a little bit - particularly in the rear - they tend to pop out easily. I changed to Robinson Racing steel axles (82300) - I can use RPM arms and adjust push rods however I like and no more popping out.
    I am their leader, which way did they go?

    I run CVDs and true track rear a arms and a arms in the front too and have extended drivecups and pushrods in inner holes...

    no issues here in bashing and making it through terrain and small jumps that come along the way,,,

    but yes the angel looks a little like " Im gonna pop out and might bind " but it has not happened to me at all

    Just hit this problem too. My tru tracks don't like the cvds. No worries though, just ordered the extended cups.
