I used to break those, I always had a couple of them around as spares.

This is a vintage car, you need to treat it like one. All the solvents have flashed out of the plastic and it gets uber brittle.

RPM only made black, the blue/purple ones you see available are the Stock Losi white one that has been dyed.

Continue to run the truck, there is a Trinity Bulkhead brace available (same site as the blue/purple bulkheads) that is perfect. The longer arms put much more stress on the bulkhead, with the brace it fixes that problem (but will put the stress for breakage on the front arms). The original was probably cracked from the previous owner, you said the front arm was already broke - most times the bulkhead would weaken also.

I'm in the process of building up a couple vintage trucks to run, another LXT and a 10T.
