Although like any plastic part it does wear, i have run the same arms since the carpet nats last year and they are still good. The only play i really get is un dampened up travel however i just use motor shims to take it out.
I need to work on my old school front end car as it is a lot less work, I have a problem with it right now which I nees to sort out. It's diving into the corners really hard, verging on undriveable and washes out coming out. I havent worked out the problem yet. I need to set it up with a wheel radio so my victims.... Er I mean friends can check it out.
