The xb4 doesn't break arms or any other parts regularly and it's not "Beefey" it is built top notch, hb looks to be as well. How about try it and test it, then we will see? You never know, maybe the arms can be a bit stronger still but not too much that other parts will fail....? It's not always black and white. This is why we test.

Depends on how much you drive..... If the X-ray breaks none in a year then what ,would be enough proof.

I try to bring a sense of humor...
Gold Cup results
Made the main in one of hardest races in my career , all the best from the N/w attended.
Making the show was no easy deal , only way was making no mistakes .
My B44 performed great , was very fast & predicable ....

Consider these hop ups a must do....
replacing
the kit ball cups with RPM ball cups ....
Ae ceramic diff balls for added durability..
Swap out the VTS for the Avid Triad slipper system .
Switch out the blue shock standoff's for the Ae RTR plastic bushing so you don't wear out the shock caps .
