| Rear shock access?
The upper mounting bolts for the rear shocks on the wraith are really hard to get to because of the cage/body. has anyone done a mod to facilitate access? Any tips/tricks?

The cage flexes a good amount just push it up or down a bit until you can get your hex driver in there...

Flip the whole rear upper shock mount it puts the screws above body and cage

I took the body panel off and it wasn't so bad. Still, I've ordered these: TowerHobbies.com | Traxxas Set Grub Screws 3x25mm T-Maxx 2.5 ( I will replace the stock screws with these and then use a lock nut to hold the shock on. This way I can use a flat wrench on the inside of the fender to get them off easily. |

It is what it is, you'll need to either remove body panels or flip the top mount as suggested to make it easier.
