Savage flux suspension arms - 03.25.2009, 05:04 PM
After few runs I broke my front suspension arms. Any recommendations for better than stock suspension arms?

Stay away from aluminum arms. Get the RPM arms there nearly indestructible.

wow. In all my years of driving savages I have never broken an arm. The stock arms are pretty tough. I'd stick with stock as they are cheap and easy to get. Did anything else break or just the arm?

I broke my Flux's arm within the first minute of driving it. I was pretty dissapointed.

I also opted for the RPM arms. They are on their way to my house as we speak :)

Just front right arms were broken. Here was pretty cold weather (-10C/14F) yesterday so I believe that's why the plastic arms were broken.

Thanks for tips. Do this RPM arms (#82002 and #82012) fit Flux without any extra tuning?
