hello, I need some sugestions from you. I am about to buy a revo and I would like to know wich are the parts that get easilly damage or broken in this car. I am asking this because I live so far away from us that I can't get replacement parts easilly.

Thanks for ansering
 
The shock shafts and shock ends are two that come to mind. Also, the transmission gears can be a bother if you abuse reverse gear or if the slipper clutch is too tight. The diffs seem to hold up pretty good, tough. The hingpins can bend if you jump or bash or lot.

Also, the Optidrive unit and sensor has been reported to go out for some owners, although I have never had a problem.
 
What about the suspension arms, do they get eassilly broken, cause my cousin has an emaxx and the suspension arms get broken quite easy.
 
No, the E and T Maxx arms are much different. The Revo ones are not known to break easily, or as much as the Maxx ones, but an extra set plus the hinge pins could not hurt to have around if you bash hard.
 
If your concerned about the arms, get the RPM arms. Though I haven't had a problem with the stocks I switched and the RPM's have proven to be very durable in racing conditions. Also you may want a fuel tank rebuild kit, at the time this is the only way to get the cap o-ring which can be a pain in the ass. RD Racing makes some great aluminum shock ends, I highly recommend them.
