I'm sorry Integra, but I ran Losi and Mugen. The Mugen is more durable for me than the Losi. I have a lot of bend axle's with the Losi, the wingmount brakes easy on a bad landing and the front diffcase breaks easy from an impact on the shocktower. I also had the rear axle comming out of the center diff when going over huge jumps. I never broke an A arm tho.
I have broken 2 A arms on the Mugen. 1 Time I took a 20m long, 4m high jump at full speed and landed on the 1 front wheel. I was actually bashing it with a friend on a BMX track lol. The only time I bashed it...
I guess every A arm would break when hitting such a big jump and land it totally wrong. The other A arm broke from the hitting a pile when my car went his own way after the reciever got water on it

Well if you want to get technical
I mean drive axle:

And Wheel hex:

You have to replace both to get the slop out but it will come back.

If i was to run any Buggy But a Mugen i would Go back to a Losi. I do run a Losi Dirt Oval car and Love it i think its the BEST Dirt Oval car you can buy. Like i said i Ran Losi 1.0 and 2.0 for Years and never Broke any thing just wore out a Lot of Parts the Losi Buggy will not Brake its one Tuff Buggy i just Like how the Mugen Buggy drives and it fits Me Better.
O and Yes you can put a Losi Clunk in the Mugen Tank i did it and LOVE it that is one thing i wish Mugen would have done was put a Clunk in the tank like Losi did. So i put one out of an Old Losi Tank i had and its working GREAT.

Can you explain what you did and show pictures please of the tank mod?

Fuel tank can be done like the losi....Clunk it up and cut out the baffles so the line can make a clear run to the Sump....Ontop if the leaky pick up the Lid has proven to be an issue for some guys so I Highly suggest cutting a Thin slit right in front of the puller and using Throttle bands to ensure the tank closes Even when your pitman forgets to push on the lid.
Older 5 tank, but you get the idea.....I also use 5-6 bands now for extra security.

That seems like it's an interesting mod to the tank. What is this mod accomplishing? I am assuming it is not the clunk tank mod that has been discussed. I would be concerned about the fuel line going into the tank, and the seal it would provide. Even if you were to try and use some silicone, since the tubing is flexable I would think it would eventually leak.

there i believe don't leak
but over time the tanks and line may need replacing as would losi tanks i guess
