What do u mean?

"I'm am from the future ? ? iv seen much trouble with clone bones and great power?????"

 

[Z.hb71]

Lol the clone bone zonis didn't workout too well

Horse ?????‍
That's why I'm going flm 5mm

For the thickness of those bones that is some junk...the treating process must have been overlooked

They are allegedly hardened steel, I don't believe it ?? they were 20 bucks so idk what I expected, and Idk why I didn't spend the 10 bucks more to get flm with a lifetime warranty?‍

Gotta figure summin out for the boots though. Can't find hostiles, can't find the 25mm hpi ones, ? and I can't run without boots. Last time I did that, I went through pins literally every run ?

 

[DougStar]

Buy some phatdad ones run dry

Wonder if the dbxl boots could work?

Can you measure them? Maybe your on to something!

Buy some phatdad ones run dry

Don't think that will work, I had phatdad pins in mine and they still wore down and snapped really quick.

 

[Rep732]

I think any boot of the same length will work they just will have the stretch a little more and maybe a zip tie

It's the diameter that I care about, stretched boots don't last long at all with my driving style ?

 

[Rep732]

If you push the boot in toward the pivot point you may have better luck... if the boot is fully extended I can see an issue...and yea i understand being stretched is already stressing the rubber...maybe there's something that it can be dressed with to make it more pliable

 

[DougStar]

The last lot of hostile boots where like they where perishing ...? when I took them of ...., they just tore off????
