cheeers

upper front arms,
lower front arms,
the occasional driveshaft,
shock shafts (front mainly)
front knuckles,
front upper suspension arm mount,
front pivot balls,

these are basicaly the only parts that break,

unless you do some crazy jumps then the front of the chassis is prone to breaking, i always keep 3 spare lwb and swb chassis as spares

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i recommend the alloy upper mount, $24

and i recommend the alloy front knuckles $14.50, (£55 in uk).

and i recommend titanium shock shafts,

front: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMSC2&P=7
rear: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXMSC3&P=7


and i also recommend these driveshafts $38 a pair:

also i would recommend the titanium pivot balls,

although you only get 2 and if you buy the normal ones they are cheaper and you get 6, so you could break 3 normal ones compared to 1 titanium,

i use the normal ones and have only broke 2 in a year and a half,

normal ones here:
