OFFICIAL Best Aftermarket Parts Thread!
From plastic to aluminum, from axles to wheels, who makes the best purpose-built, duarable racing parts for Monster Trucks; MIP, Lunsford, Integy, Trinity, RD Logics, GPM, RPM, Nova, Proline, New Era, Golden Horizons, Hardcore Racing, Hot Racing, Xtreme Racing, Robinson Racing, THS, RB, etc. Which manufacturer stands out among the rest?
I'm sure there's more, but you get the picture, so lets figure this out. For instance, I see posts about Integy and GPM being of low quality, but rarely do I see someone say, "Integy aluminum arms bend easily, but the RD Logic arms are bullet proof." Meaning, people are quick to bash a product, but rarely recommend an alternative.
This topic is moreso targeted at the Revo and Savage crowd. Please post your personal experience with the parts and the level of bashing or racing you're involved in, not what you've read elsewhere.
Post pictures, personal reviews, whatever you want.

as far as LST2 hop-ups go, New Era makes the best engine braces and knuckles. however, I'm also interested which companies make the most durable aftermarket parts.

Wow, so many to choose from. The companies that stand out as awesome to me are RPM, Lundsford, MIP, and Robinson Racing.
Sorry, I couldn't pick just one.

RPM is one of my top favorites. Super strong plastics and top quality.
New Era is great too, although their machining could be a little cleaner. Nevertheless good quality stuff.
Hardcore Racing... I never owned a part by them. However, I hear good things and the reason I list them is their use of titanium instead of aluminum.
Proline has always made top products. All I ever used by them are the wheels and tires, but if those are an example of their quality, it's a very good one.
I would buy from those 4 companies without any concern about quality.
Most others, I'd do some research on the parts before buying.
