      Chances are, its probably only sold as a whole “chassis parts” pack.

      Try first filling up the threads with either superglue gel or some epoxy, then drilling/tapping it out correctly. Save some $$.

      I think he means the motor contact terminal; it screws into plastic so you’ll have more luck with superglue. (Don’t get any on the copper contact though!)

      Some threadlocks will dissolve plastics.

      Has anyone ever broken the part where the heat sink clips into? i have had dramas with one of my BCG’s where it is cracked in the middle, and it pops out occasionally, always in the middle of a race, frustrating! ive tried super glue but just dosent hold it, any one had a similar problem?

      I was hoping for *new* stuff. I was thinking about getting a clear chassis, but it would get lotsa dust and dirt inside it and look really dodge.
