Aluminum front lowers?
I just recieved my Hurricane XP and boy does it look nice! I was inspecting everything and it just dawned on me why the front lower arms aren't aluminum. I searched and couldn't even find alum frt lowers anywhere... Just wondering if they are even available for the 'cane. I could swear I saw some pics of other redcats with alum there.

The PRO is the one with the aluminum up grade's not the XP this come from redcats site Hurricane also has the PRO model which differentiates itself from the Hurricane XP by having all of the aluminum upgrades (hop-ups) installed.But here is the site to get the lower upgraded arms its all the way to the bottom

Mine is the PRO... Lots of aluminum, but not the Lower Front.
Those are the REAR lwr arms down the bottom of the page, I've looked and didn't see the fronts. Just curious really, I'd probably add those and the wing support in blue aluminum (thats out of stock though). Ever break a lower arm?

I will say the PRO is very impressive looking with all that aluminum... browsing the redcat site, I think the only things I'd add would be : Wing mount, servo savers, and servo arms. (and lwr fronts )

Yea I noticed that too maybe Darin will read this and shed some light on the subject. I have even spent the last couple hours looking at other similar buggys to see if I could find one that would fit, but no luck!

i dont think they make them, they would be really expensive, i mean, look at the size of them and honestly, i never heard on anyone breaking one.

Well as a Redcat owner, I don't really ever think about durability or performance, cause its already there! Its all about rollin' slow and lettin' tha gold diggers count your spokes
