New Member & Knuckle Question!

Hello All,

I'm a new member here and the proud owner of a Redcat Racing Volcano 1/18 Monster Truck! Well actually, my son is the proud owner of a Redcat Racing Volcano 1/18 Monster Truck.

You see, he got one for his birthday, and he absolutely loved it. So much so, that he shared it with his friends. One of them drove it into every hard object he could find....eventually the Knuckle Arms at the back broke and the wheels fell down (both back wheels separately).

Being a resourceful dad, I ordered him new knuckles and while I was at it, thought I should get the same car so we could race.

New knuckles are here, and...now I'm stuck...I'll post under a different board...but, I can't get the piece that attaches the knuckle to the bottom of the suspension arm off. It is driving me craaaaazzzzy.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS - I can't open the new car and get it going until I fix his car....
Also, we are in Canada and ordering parts is a disaster...the part cost $6, the shipping cost $7 :-(
