Outcast Solution to this weak spot please

Could anyone tell me the best way to sexude the two bolts that secure the front lower arm pins on outcast 6s? Keep pulling through I’ve tried packing the hole out and thread lock but not solving the issue. Thanks guys ??

Replace the front diff case Arrma part# AR310854

Flexible 2-part epoxy such as a methacrylate then drill and tap.

Are the screws long enough to reach the bottom of the hole they are in?

They reach all the way in but they keep bending and pulling out, I’ve changed out the stock bumper which may be putting added strain on them so ideally I wanna upgrade to bigger bolt, not sure where to start my search though

I had the same problem. Switched to rpm bumper and HR lower front suspension mounts. Problem over! Drilled and tapped for a #3 stainless screw. Can go with a longer scew also.

I see. That bumper puts a ton of strain on two measely little 3mm bolts. Not sure you will find a solution that works well. I don't know if there's enough material there to drill out and use a 4mm bolt instead.

I run an RPM front bumper/skid on my outcast with the stock wide bumper piece removed and only the stump remaining to retain the hinge pins. The RPM bumper only mounts on the bottom, but I bought 2-3mm longer screws and added steel wear bars as I was grinding through the plastic pretty quick at the skate park and in a bad tumble, the screws were pulling through the skid.

I had a similar issue as you with the tbone rear bumper/skid/wheelie bar ripping the screws out of the diff case. I gave up, got rid of the sway bars then repurposed the sway bar holes to hold the bumper support instead, drilled out the diff case screws on the top to use longer screws there as well and also drilled/tapped an extra hole for the skid plate thing.

Haven't had any issues since.
