The front top plate/bulkhead is the only thing I've broken more than one of in 90+ racedays with this car so far. Rear arms actually seem more likely to break than fronts - personally, I've broken one rear and zero fronts but have seen others also break rears but not fronts as well. Otherwise, anything else this car breaks will be such a fluke, you'd have to carry just about everything (I have a box full of almost every plastic part on the car that almost never gets opened) to be prepared for such a fluke or accept that it's probably the most durable buggy you'll ever own and not worry about it.

Cool, I've been running a b5 which is pretty solid. Yokomo part will be harder to come by in a pinch because I live in Canada. So I'm just trying to be prepared

I have a pile of broken front arms from the B5m. I did just break one on the yz2 and you will find its allot EASIER to replace the are on the yz2 vs the b5m.

The only thing I've broken so far is a PL Trifecta wing. That wing took a severe beating and not a single part on the buggy failed. I too have plenty of spares still in the package.

Aside from one rear arm, I've broken 3 ball cups on the front upper links. They bend right at the end of the turnbuckle, and break fairly quickly thereafter. I haven't seen anyone mention this yet, but probably a good idea to grab an extra set of ball cups.
