Can't you send the RPM arms back for free replacements? You may have to pay shipping costs, but i'm sure you'll get a free set - they are supposedly "unbreakable" and have a guarantee.

i think it would be a good idea to take advantage of the offer. just send it back, get new ones for free, and you wont have to constantly repair it because that crack will be a weak spot.

Status: offline 		Little late to the party, but I love my MGT. I think it's an underappreciated truck. I don't have a whole lot of free time to run it, so I've only got about a gallon through it in the year I've owned it, but so far(knock on wood) the only thing I've broken is the pullstart recoil spring. I don't jump it off garage roofs or hit trees at full tilt, but I do beat on it more than any other car/truck I've had, and so far nothing's broken. Mostly I like to run it in the pasture at my father's house - there's lots of natural jumps between the ditches and spoil piles, rolling mounds in the terrain and rocks and rockpiles. Thing about those rocks though - my rear skidplate is looking pretty bad these days. There are literally divots in the aluminum--guess that means it's doing its job protecting the rear diff .

Nah, no pictures. But, you're not missing much. Just picture the MGT in the ads with the the red flame paintjob, but add a lot of scuffs, a fine patina of dirt and grime to the chassis along with some gouges and divots in the aluminum skidplates, and a permanent haze of dirt on the worn out tires, and you've got a prety good picture what mine looks like . Get it, you won't regret it.
