Default revo upper arms breaking!

I was just wondering if anyone else was having this problem the rear upper arms keep breaking. I have integy msr6 piggy back shocks on the revo not sure what to do now. The upper arms have each broke twice only one at a time and its always the opposite one that broke last time. the last time it broke i replaced both uppers and it still broke. any ideas on what to do.

+1 rpm them and you won't break them anymore.

Grab the RPM arms is what I'd also recommend. Different trucks react differently to things. I break parts doing things on my T-Maxx that my LST2 has no trouble with, and vice-versa. Name of the game in this hobby. =)
