Ok, now i just got this truck broke in. On its first kinda fast start to tune run, my son t boned me with a rustler .15, no big deal, right? WRONG...the R/Rear axle carrier toe tab sheared completely off smooth, like a shave. I picked up new carriers and started to change them, removed the tire and the damn A Arm is cracked where the ball joint screws in. How often will this happen with the stock arms? Is this a fluke? Obviously gotta fix them (sooner than later) So should i go stock or get the RPM toe eliminator arms with the carriers? Or is there another brand i could consider?
 
RPM is the only choice. Really tough and they used to have a lifetime warranty as well as great support.
 
i dont know what these guys are talking about. RPM arms are the best for the revo. you can also get extended rears from tekno which will extend the 2.5 chassis revo out to the length of the 3.3 revo.
 
i actually just got the complete rpm arm and knuckle set up and its absolutely amazing. the oversized bearings are key and the lifetime warranty is great. the rear true track set up is amazing.
 
Ok, I ordered the RPM tru trac for my revo, and rpm arms for the front. My LHS showed me a pair of axle carriers that were just huge. Think they were tekno. But I'm thinking I'll be gettin them also. In the mean time, I got stock a arms and axle carriers to replace for the weekend. A arms fit perfect. But the axle carrier, the front bearing wouldn't fit, I opened the hole up so the bearing would fit in but it dosent go deep enuff, I think the parts were miss packaged(got the 5334 instead of the 5334r) is their that big a difference? I thought it was just the metal rings that I transfered over. O well thanx again, guess I'm just gonna have to wait for the RPM parts to arrive.

So I put on my new true trac setup in the rear and new rpm arms on the front. The only thing I noticed so far is that RPM says not to run the lt suspension or it will void the warranty. So I'm leaving the p2 suspension on. Ok I'm gonna go try out my new setup.
 
I wouldn't worry about a silly warranty on something that was 30 bucks. Run it the way you want. You can buy the individual components anyway.
