Those universals are used in loads of high-tech apps (like driving control surfaces of fighter aircraft) and the pin is not designed as a failure point. They do break in our application when overdriven, though, as many know. That motor is very powerful as it's geared. You'd think if it was a shear pin Saab would be a little more graceful about the part situation and sell the pins rather than the entire joint at $150 a pop.
