Man... This is the first time in this hobby I've ever broke anything.. and on top of that it was 2 parts at the same time.. Guess I was having to much fun with my emaxx lately 
finally got it, was like "yay" can take it to the yard (full of jumps and natural hills) well i get back there and the truck is pretty far away now, i get mad air off a hill, guess my site decieved me and while going full speed (bout 35-40mph because i got going down a huge hill) landed didnt have time to turn and SMACK into a huge tree.. Now remember, this emaxx is still stock so it hurt to watch.. oh well live and let learn! my first tragic (well not to bad) story for the forums.

600+ posts and you finally broke something? lol lucky bum
most people break something day one or two then come here to find a fix for it. i guess your an exception to that rule.
id say in my short time running mine ive broken atleast 50 different things. thats only a few months of driving.

yeah ive had a few like that
my last big one was a mail box post. i though i could squeeze through a mail bow and a tree. the left front end caught the mail box and broke 4 pieces. front bulk head, tub chassis,shock tower, and this support thing under the truck. its a stampede.
about $30 in parts. this was the second time i broke some of those pieces. the first time i was able to super glue some of them back together, but this crash ruined them.
try some glue. it does work well on plastic

i guess i could try super glue on the a-arm.. but I'm getting the widetrac monstermaxx system within the next few weeks so I'm not to worried about it, but will the proline cvds work in the widetrac system? rather not spend 100$ per cvd like monstermaxx prices theres --x
