Thanks for jinxing me Freeride, this one is deep in there.




(these arn't UE pillowballs.)

IMO you should use those same balls, that way you have a weak spot

yeah, except I dont like the idea of breaking pillowballs every couple tanks.

Gettin UE steel ASAP.

Better than possibly bending the racerx, LOL

How are you planning on getting this one out?

yeah that doesnt look like its going to be that easy, cant really get a grinder intere to get a slot, maybe drill it out?

Easyout. Go to any hardware store or Sears. You drill a small pilot hole in the center and then the easyout uses left handed threads to back out the broken stud. Cheap and easy!

Truck looks good Rob glad to see you are running it. Tough luck on the pillow balls. I have UE on my Predator and have never had a problem.

I have an idea to get out the broke thread of the pillow ball. It's probably not tight in the arm so go to a good hardware store (Not Home Depot, Menards etc.) Purchase a left hand drill bit and make sure you run the drill in reverse. The left hand rotation in most cases will extract the threaded end without having to use an easy-out / extractor.

man all those sweet parts and a stupid thing like that breaks tough luck bro great looking truck tho

Wait I forgot its UE Racer X like mine. Remove your set screw from the back of the arm and use a regular drill bit. The rotation of the bit will most likely remove it. Just make sure you center punch it dead center if possible. Not to worry you will get it out.

I already got it out

Well that's great... LoL. Now all you need to learn is how to drive... I'm J/k... LoL

I just trashed a full set of rims lol
