Rpm A Arms Vs Stock

[maximusraylius]

hello everyone i just was wondering who runs rpm a arms and are they more flexable than stock arms?

thinking of getting some for one of my builds but started thinking if they are more flexible than stock ones they might bend or snap shock shafts easier..

just a thought... any comments will be greatly appreciated.. thx.

happy bashn

I got a friend with RPM LST shock arms and another with savage arms and both of them run there rigs really hard and have never complained about bending or anything...if anything they have commented on how durable they are...they don't scratch/gouge easy as the stock plastic

sweet thx i was just wondering and the price of the rpm is actualy cheaper than stock so might as well upgrade ..right? lol was just lil concernd of the amount of flex they might have messn things up..

all i have to say on this matter is ive never seen somebody snap a rpm arm lyle.

they have a lifetime guarantee against breakage also.

ya RPM products are awsome my friend, there a-arms are lighter then stock and almost indestructable.. a great upgrade in my opinion!! I'm not running the a-arms "yet" but do have there center skid plate on my x and its taken a beating lol

As you know i just installed these couple days ago on my X. They were a little tight fighting so i sanded a little where the pins slide through now they move as smooth as the stock, but these things are tuff and like DeathRage said about how they don't scratch or anything is pretty much true. When i had to break the upper arms off each other and took the dremel to shave off the extra plastic I was surprised how long it was taking and how much power I had to use just 2 get that extra plastic off lol. From what I can tell (bashed it twice with the RPM arms) is that they don't flex and it feels like a solid all around upgrade!

nice blinko thx thats what i was worried about mostly was the flex in um thought they might flex enough to bend shock shafts ....thx for clearing that up for me ..think I'm sold on a set for sure now ...


happy bashn...
