New Truck...
#9
When it is warmer, the LST is a little more durable. When the temps drop below 35*, some of the plastic parts like to break. Don't get me wrong, If I would have landed the jump right, or not under/over steered the turn, parts would not break either. On the Stock A-Arms, MANY of the lower arms have had an air bubble in them, causing a weak point, and they are also a bit too stiff. RPM arms are due out soon for the LST. Other breakages tonight, were a turnbuckle and a steering spindle (To much torque coming out of a turn, the back wheels broke loose, and I spun hard, slamming the wall with my back tire).

I didn't remember till after the first two times I broke, that I took out low gear and reverse, which really freed up the tranny quite a bit, causing a lot more torque....
