Default FS2 front shaft

Was racing tonight when the rear grip seemed to vanish.
When I checked the car the little shaft that connects the front diff to the rest of the drive train had pulled out of the part that connects to the front diff.
I can fix this but does anyone know how to stop it happening again?

Common mate.
If you look at the instruction there is a white part that you have to insert in the slipper cup otherwise it can pop out under flex.
I have forgotten to put it in too.

Tony, I've been trawling through the manual but I can't find the part number.
Can you or anyone else help please?

I had this same thing first time out - in the haste to get it built I had missed it out!

It looks like the white eared piece that covers the thrust race in the outdrive.

Missed it too, survived the first race day and then came out. Went with a small piece of fuel tubing in the front center out-drive and it's good as gold. Should put the proper part in, but it's a b*tch of a job with 1/8th scale fingers like mine

I think it's part of the LA200 parts set.

I know of two other Kyosho cars that have had the issue - not mine though

However the 2nd hand spare car that I landed this week for spares has got the bits missing... Thankfully I'll be stripping the diffs, slipper and so forth for a service, the rest of it can just be shoved back in the box for when I need spares,

It is the la200 bevel gear set you need it comes with all the out drive and drive train plastic spacers if you don't put the spacer in it also chews the small centre shaft. You should have plenty of the part you need Steve I'm sure I sent you some
