how did you do that, hit something?
yes they are the same, only difference is the rear engine mounting brackets of a 340 that are bolted on; they simply bolt off.

was on track drifting and i span out, i didnt hit anything and there was no bangs or bumps etc but when it came to the next corner it was pulling towards the wall, must have been going for a while and that just finished it off, now i think about it i have been saying something didnt feel rite for a while but could never find anything,
cheers that's good to know will get on it asap

when you find a replacement maybe look into this:

Would stop it happening again maybe? Although i'd guess that it's just been rusting with age rather than a defect in design, but still, worth doing
