I just had another order for some of my 3D printed Invencer dirt oval car parts ship. I ordered them on the 1st! Only 8 days!!! It was a small order though. Most of mine have several parts.

Any chance of getting stock CE arms in white?

I've loaded them. I don't intend to keep them up so get them within the next day if you want them.

Why not Fred, those should sell really well, probably better than the extended ones?

We'll see. The wide arms have actually done pretty well.

Back on topic...
My wide front arms continue to impress me with their durability, many a bad crash and no breakage yet. Haven't had a chance to put on the extended rear arms yet. Been too busy working on the 4wd

The rear arm are pretty tough, too! Normal racing bumps & crashes were no problem.
I did break a rear arm Sat, but you being stupid. I tried going balls out to clear a triple that only 2 guys at the track were able to clear ~70-80% of their laps..

My car went nose high & twisting, then the 6-7ft fall had it land on the corner of the left rear wheel - twist the arm hard.

It broke clean, & I'm going to attempt a repair, just to see! But I already have another set ordered

I'll design a stronger set. These were designed to look like the stock arms. If that's not a concern I can do an alternative version that are more durable. I've actually already revised these arms once since I first made them available. The reinforcing ribs are slightly thicker than they originally were.

I haven't released the rear hubs yet because I'm not happy with them. They did work but just seem a bit too flimsy.

I am all for a so called "racer" version!

Maybe this pic will help with your design..

As I stated.. normal racing, the arms hold up like a champ. The damage here was pure torsion-flex. I did not have an E-clip on the back of the hinge-pin, which the hinge pin was fully seated when it broke. However, having the E-clip on the back of the hinge-pin may have helped to reduce the amount of twist allowed.. I will be running full E-clips from now on, even if the pins are rigidly mounted in position. If I hadn't attempted a 20ft jump, this wouldn't have happened. lol

Thanks Fred, for having made these arms in the 1st. They really do bring the car to life against the Modern cars!

Give me a few days. The new ones will be much stronger.

Can you guys bring me up to speed. So these arms are the widest you can get and fred is currently making a stronger version? Am I following you guys? Also where do you buy them?

I have front and rear arms that look like the stock arms but are wider. Next week I'll load an alternate version that don't mimic the stock look but will be stronger. Click on the link in my signature.

Ok. So I should preferably wait for the stronger arms?
