The front shock towers and a-arms on the Tyco (Taiyo) Bandit chassis are very weak. Should yours have failed, you can now replace the whole thing with a new Double Wishbone set. This does require extra parts like ball studs and Tamiya Hornet Spindles but you will be able to get a much better front suspension.

There are two options for the Towers. TBB009-01 - 50mm eye to eye tower shown in images and tested. TBB009-A1 - 36.4mm eye to eye, untested
