This rock crawling stuff is getting to be a little rough on LEGO pieces.  First
there were broken u-joints from my 4wd steering truck

Now there are deformed friction pins from my latest creation

The bent pins were a result of an end-over-end flip off a 45 deg slope.
Normally that wouldn't have been a problem, but I foolishly tried to catch it
mid-flip.  Too much stress on the pins and they deformed and went shooting out
of the rock crawler.

But this is too much fun, I'm not letting a little thing like broken LEGO pieces
stop me!
