I used plain old krazy glue.

cool. i found that crazyglue gets stripped from all that torque after a while. its good for the front knuckles but the rear requires something more solid(jbweld) it stops any rotational flex.

I'm sure your right hog, fortunatly I've had no problems yet. I bought mad glue from the dollar store and I guess this would be the more productive way to use it

So how does the wheel spin on the front? I never thought to try putting it on backwards like you did..

Since the wheel doesn't spin on the knuckle pin, but rather the pin spins in the knuckle. How is it?

You'd think there'd be more fricton this way..

If you use the stock pins than yeah there is some added friction unless you heat the pin before putting it in the knuckle and give it a few spins too widen out the hole (if you get what I mean). I don't seem to be having any problems the fronts seem to spin just as well.

Cool.. I heated my pins to remove them from the knuckles, and glued em back in..

Hows it workin with those nubs on the front? If you leave em on, you'll have to trim more of the body so the'll be able to turn properly..

Those tires are so grippy it ain't funny...

Aww I'm loving the tread on these. Grippy is like an understatement. It aint working with the nubs on front

I definatly need to remove them but I was also thinking of using the stock pullback setup, fat rear tight front, sorta like the way I like my girls

That's what I'm doing.. Phats in the rear, and mediums in front.. I think this will yield a great setup..

I just chopped off the pullback knuckles with a cutter..(they're of no use to me)

It leaves the pins in perfect condition..
