A arm trouble

I just restored my RC10ce. I've already snapped one of my front A arms. My heart is broken. It took me forever to get it in good working condition because I had to get alot of parts from ebay. I have the weekend off, and all I wanted to do was mess around with it. Now it looks like I'll have to wait to win a bid, and have one shipped to me. My RC10 has been packed away for about 18 years. Can this stuff get briittle?Does anyone know where I can find some aluminum suspension arms for a 1990 RC10ce?

such is the life of running a vintage ride. Just feel lucky that the replacement parts are relatively cheap. try running a Bruiser or sand scorcher, when you break a part, you may need to take out a home equity loan.
