I believe the this cheap red piece of aluminum that keeps blowing out, which breaks the chassis. So I made my one Out of T6 and put it back together it’s holding up for just normal street run’s but I haven’t tried to jump it or anything. New chassis are getting hard to come by.

Front A-arm pivot pin pulls out of the chassis and through the aluminum pivot pin block
I’ve never broken an A arm, but I’ve broken two chassis, the same exact way.

I be leaving that the fix is a new hinge pin, metal block like the one I made in the second picture.

You might want to do this mod to. The rod will bend pulling out and breaking the chassi also. You have to cut them down to length and grind the head down. This is how i broke my chassi after the v2 arm upgrade.

4 suspension rods to a package. I think I paid $12 or $18.
 
You are absolutely correct. I went with a slightly longer stock Arrma hinge pin. I forget the part number, but I can find it if you need it, it’s about the same price.

I'm going to make that junk red support out of better aluminum like you did. Never broke one yet.
