Help . I love the truck . When i land it hard the right rear suspesion arm comes out of the suspension shaft ! The arm isn't broken and the shaft stays in the suspension set . I have replaced all three . It took two jumps off of an 18" ramp and the same thing happened . I checked the battery box and all of the screws . It was all good . i am missing something .Please help .

WOW 4 posts in 11 months [&:] most all of the aluminum arms are considered to be nothing more than bling. there are more crucial parts to consider before installing Aluminum arms.

got tires bought street tred hated them at first then lernd how to drive with them still prefer stock but i like the pro line road rage for warm cement got some slick berings from my old work at a bering store for industreal places like the steel mills up here i love them they kick hobbie berrins ass but you need to learn how to drive all over cause there so fast im still a noob so a servo saver means nothing to me cause i dont know what it is the rechargeble batt is a good one i love my bargen basment one i want to get 2.4 radio and new servos was aculy wondering if you could use the tracxxis sealed ones but no one can tell me so or if the drift controler will work for the nitro fire storm or if its just for the flux
