Traxxas Revo Pushrod 5318X Aluminum Review

[@DirtbikeDad]

I have the nitro revo that needs new push rods and toe rods. They have the spacers on them and the ball ends and rods are rusted not sure of what rocker arms I have and is there a complete kit available?

[@HeadBassVTEC]

never happened to my E-Revo... anyway those TRA5319 and TRA5319X are for progressive-3 rocker arms TRA5359 which it seems you are not running (they are longer) so not sure if it's a good upgrade alone just replace the rod end for a new one and problem solved, the 5319 most likely have the exact same rod ends as the 5318 if you keep stripping the threads for some strange reason than get the RPM rod ends

[@rawmenn00dle83]

Would you be able to use thread locker on the pushrods? I used them for the toe links...

[@jayhenderson1544]

They sell the same rods with metal ends! That's what I put in my Revo! No problems since!

[@andraybatungbacal]

IS that rod compatible with E-revo 2.0 VXL?

[@continuecrushingrc3653]

eh, not sure...I know they keep changing lengths on things, not sure if they're still compatible.

[@fr33Kill]

Yes I did it with mine.

[@1k__wish]

Has it completely fixed your issue? I’m still wondering if they’re worth it

[@lukeprattsolderbrother]

@continuecrushingrc what suspension do u use on your e Revo because it looks good

[@RMJ1984]

Seems like getting one with metal rod ends and then epoxy them together, so they physically cannot separate should work. Odd nobody has come up with this and made a video.

[@MatrixRC]

That's what I did and it's still holding

[@Say0n]

I Agree, the issue is in the plastic thread

[@fr33Kill]

But then you bend the links. Metal has no give.

[@colbycreamer8732]

This is great! Thanks!

[@NoneNone-gk9wt]

Put it in the ball end first all the way then into that arm

[@andraybatungbacal]

Did it solved your problem? It does not pop out anymore?

[@continuecrushingrc3653]

Yeah, no issues since!

[@rcsendandblast1579]

continuecrushingrc happy to know the suspension straps aren't needed yet. 👊😎

[@continuecrushingrc3653]

They certainly wouldn't hurt-I'd probably put them on just as a preventative

[@rcsendandblast1579]

Suspension straps dude. 👊😎problems 100% solved And it looks goood to.

[@Anii6969]

I got straps and still propped out 3x 1 day

[@rcpatapouf]
