You need to make limit straps...so the A-arms don't go to full extention....in the forum search box..type in (limit straps) that should give you some threads that people have
made those limit straps.......Slawhammer

you can use some of that fishing trace wire its stainless steel...and you can get the crimps as well that they sell with the wire... looks neat as well...

Also, you can put little pieces of fuel line in the drive cups. that will prevent the axles from shifting and falling.

i have never used limiting straps and never had this problem. i suggestion you join this www.hpibajaforum.com as it is free like this site and there is many people willing to help. are you using dogbone boots could we get some pictures?

It used to happen allot more often on the 1st generation bajas.. When the rear arm goes down farther than a point while jumping and WOT the buggy spits out the shafts. Used to happen to me all the time until i did the fuel tube thing. The limiting straps are a great mod though if you want.

i had this very same problem.turned out a rear hub had cracked around the 4 bolt holes,the hub would flex causing the dog bone to pop out.

my remedy was alloy hubs with killer rc shock limiting straps.......................iv never had a problem since......happy days!

Putting either fuel line or EAR plugs in the dogbone cups will help alot. It centers the bones.
