!@#% little plastic piece!
 
Well, something busted. I'm not exactly sure what it's called, but if you look at the rear A-arms of your car, there is the metal part where the wheels slide onto, then the bearings in the arm, then the knuckles, then whatever the thingie the knuckle slides into. Well, the thingie that the knuckle slides into has one of the tabs broken off, so it sucks. If someone could tell me what EXACTLY the piece is called, it'd be much appreciated. I looked at CJ's list and didn't find what I think it would be called. Also, if an upgrade replaces this piece, or if there is a newer, better version (metal maybe?), please let me know.

Thanks in advance (maybe?)

Crap, I guess the thing I'm not thinking of is the dogbone. Found a picture of a little mod someone did, and even has nice little arrows pointing to the part that broke.

If you can't see it very well, it's like a cup with two notches on opposite sides of one another. The dogbone has the little things that stick out, stubs, if you will, that insert into these, which spin the axle/wheel. I believe he referred to it as the "output shaft."

Not to be rude, but man, how on earth didja break that? Anyway..I have no idea myself. But my ideas would be:

12414249 HOLDER CENTER SHAFT (REAR) $2.49 Not In Stock
12414314 JOINT CUP CENTER SHAFT $2.49 Not In Stock
12414322 JOINT CUP CENTER LEFT $2.49 Not In Stock

Its not the most helpful I know..but maybe it'll help you narrow it down some. Its basically what I had to do.

12414322 JOINT CUP CENTER LEFT $2.49
as long as its on the left side im pretty sure thats what youre looking for. if its the right side use the other joint cup center. i would order them both just so if the other side breaks youll have an extra.
