the metal "doohickeys" aren't the piece i need, i dont need the cup, i need the part that goes IN the cup. besides, i've noticed i've started to round off the piece that goes into the rear end, so i need this anyway.

So these cars have plastic dogbones and cups??? Man thats not cool. The only parts that have broken on my mini Z are the standard plastic H plate and the servo gears. These have been upgraded, the only thing that breaks now is the shell.
