hinge pins
what real advantages will [link=http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXFJB7&P=7]these[/link] bring? are they worth it? do the stock ones ever even bend or break?

RE: hinge pins
I bent a lower arm hinge pin. I messed up the whole front end in doing so. Even then it was only bent a little bit. So if you are going to bend a hinge pin you are probably going to be in a major crash and that will be that last thing you will want to spend the money on replacing.

RE: hinge pins
I would not worry about running them. So far I have never bent a stock one. I know titanium is stronger but I have see people bend titanium parts. I agree on a Savage if you bend a hinge pin I would think you have more problems then just the pin.
