the stock diff is locked and you have to add the diff balls . ...... back to my question ..... i have broken three arms in three days.

If you are breaking plastic arms at that rate you will just bend aluminum. What are you hitting to break them? Sounds like you should just slow down a bit.

jumps . off tilt ladings sad really they keep breaking at the hinge pin . the first one was my fault just giving nuts . but the last two have been weak sauce . my traxxas stuff is way tougher . but i know a alumium arm or rpm strenth would survive no prob .

if your breaking you losi arms you will surely bend aluminum ones. then you suspension will bind and it will drive like crap.

I have had my xxx-t for years and it still has the original arms on it. Whatever your doing its not the trucks fault. Stop hitting this and jumping at 100 mph and you see your parts last much longer.

If you really want to bash.

yes losi is perfect ......... look i am trying to enjoy my new toy . i love how smooth the power is it handles great but i am finding this one part is weak . i just want a hop up for it but lack of support is soon becoming a problem with this truck . i will have my friend make some arms from alumium or titanium this winter when his shop slows down but until then i want some made just a bit better .the turn buckles are fine the axles are not bent i am not bashing this unit i am running it on the same track i run my rustlers and slashes , just keep the coments about how hard i am running it down to a min , and help me find a better part please .

here is what happens when you add aluminum to your truck. You make on part stronger it will displace the stress else were.

Meaning instead of breaking an a arm, you'll bend a hing/king pin and a front bulkhead. Or you'll break a carrier assembly. If its a bad enough hit sonething will break. I would recommend tring some of the ec3 arms, they have more flex in them

There are only a few things that are good to have as aluminum. Just look at a factory team T4. They only use it in certain places. I am not bashing using alum, but it has its places. And a arms is not one of them.

But please feel free to try it out.

aluminum brace in front of the front bulkhead helps if you are breaking that. Does rpm make front arms for it?

I don't know. I've had my speed-t setup to run offroad since Late December and I really haven't had many problems with it. Only time I broke an Arm was when I smashed the front A-Arm into a tree.
