Yup have done that front arms mod myself. A no brainer really.. and its been working great. No more chipped chassis.
Yes the BJs are the same...

I would suggest what was suggested to me. I simply put a 3mm set screw in the back of the arm, shortened the hinge-pin by the length of the set-screw. Hopefully, no more problems there....

Someone mentioned the BJ4 was the same way. Really wierd....
