    Yeah.
    Dang, pulled up the "official" Axial EXO Terra video on A-Main. The Tool background music almost has me sold. I wonder if Maynard knows they are using it . . .

    Alright guys need some help, my dad left his losi mini 8ight at my at house and I gave in and ran it and ended up breaking it :eek:.

    Ordered the new parts, but I cant for the life of me figure out how to get the broken shock end piece off. Does anyone know a good way to remove it? I cant even tell if its just pushed on or screwed on, the new one dosnt have any threads I can see but im lost as to how to remove it.

    pic of the broken part:

    ^^^^Try to screw it off. If not just see if it will pull off. Might have to get rough with it. A friend of mine has had the exact same problem with his mini 8IGHT. I'll ask him about it tomorrow afternoon at the track.

    Iv tried, cant grip the shock enough without putting gouges in it, and I feel like im gonna rip the shock apart trying to pull it off. If for sure it just pulls off, ill try harder, just dont wanna try and find out it screws on, haha.

    Place a old leather belt, or scrap piece of leather on the shaft and hold with pliers, and unscrew. The leather will grab the shaft, and prevent any scratches (bad thing on shock shaft).
