New tie rods available -
01.27.2009, 12:19 PM
I've been waiting for these to finally be available for purchase - Integy Titanium pushrods. They look nice, and hopefully will hold up well - I've broken quite a few Aluminum rods, and the steel, well, they just look like crap after a while and are quite heavy.

Anyone else looking at trying them?

Nice. These may be good to replace my jdcarbon rods. I like the lightness of the carbon, the ends just don't hold up well.
Price seems reasonable too, thanks for the link!

I have to give it to integy, they have made great strides to improve there products. I do not believe the integy line today is that of yesteryear. Same thing is happening with venom, they ARE improving.

wish they had them with the turnbuckle only -

I dont care about the bling - my stock ones pull out from the ends - the only soft part of my revo so far. the pushrods are well protected from the abuse.
I wonder if they will sell them without the pushrods. Could use same for the emaxx.

I have the turnbuckles, and so far so good.
Check the pushrod length before you buy.
There are aluminum ends available as well (that was the weak spot for me as well)
I like the Integy stuff

personally, i like the stock rods for racing. Titanium, Aluminum and even CF will break on an impact, but the steel will bend and allow you to finish the race
Work because i gotta, play because i wanna
People here hate Nitro, I love it. I start it, run it about 50 ft from me and it dies, I go after it. Perfect exercise
