RC10GT front arm dimensions?

[Sebastian]

Long story short: I'm trying to widen the front end of my Stampede. So,
want to find a stadium truck A-arm thats about 10-12mm longer than mine,
but would still work width-wise. I think the RC10GT arms might be close
to what I need in length.

My stock A-arms are 74mm from pin-to-pin, with inside end-widths of 24mm
inboard end, 12mm outboard end. Ideally I'm looking for something similar,
but about 85mm long.

Would anyone with an RC10GT (or similar) be so kind as to measure their
front A-Arms? Especially anyone with the RPM a-arms #70402.

I need the length from pin to pin (CL), and the inside width of each end.

TIA!

Duratrax Maximum MT arms are 95mm pin to pin - with a nice long outer end so
you can re-drill to your liking
Outboard end is 12mm in to in
inboard is 21mm in to in, with big fat tabs that can be cut back easily to
accomodate a 25mm mount.

BTW, the Max ST arms are identical, but shorter at 77mm pin to pin

Hey, widen the rear too. (i did - on the frankenbug) make it symmetrical.
Just figure out how much longer the new arms are than your stockers, and
search for longer dogbones.
:::thinking about it:::: the stampede uses typical traxxas slider axles
right? this might make this easier or harder...not sure.
