The bmax4ii wishbones were a bit beefier, and it was obvious which were stronger from looking at them. May be very difficult to find any now, as the part codes were the same (BM-008F) and the Bmax4iii part replaced the older one.

May sound like a silly response, but have you thought about giving him a solid 2wd car like the BMAX2MR to learn with? They are cheap enough second hand, and very solid. 2wd is a bit more forgiving for a learner, as well as being lighter and a bit slower.
