Yeah, but the Associated arms break instead of the pins. Arms are typically more expensive than pins and you can't finish a race when your A arm breaks. If a pin bends, you can typically make it through the rest of the race.
With that being said, I FINALLY broke an arm today on my EB48.3. First time I've ever broke one. Still haven't broke one on my Truggy. Nasty crash - got bumped in the air on our big triple and landed sideways on the front left arm. But I kept driving for a few laps before noticing it was broken.
