Hi, I am having a problem with my Slash 2wd. My drive shafts keep comming out of the outdrives when I land, do you have any idea what may be causing this to happen and any advice on how to prevent it from happening in the future?

Thanks in advance

Will

do you mean the actuall outdrives or the extendy bit? if its the actual outdrives there should be a grubscrew to hold it in, if its the extendy bit, you might want to limit the down travel of your shocks a lot
