Chassis brace Anybody made a chassis brace for the venture? I'm. Looking to remove my battery tray and want a brace to go between the shock towers. I was hoping to do this with threaded rod but this would mean fat nuts either side which may get in the way of the shock towers. I've seen the 3d printed stuff but wanted a simpler idea. Thanks for any replies 👊 |
Re: Chassis brace Pretty certain all your options are going to be 3D printed but it’s been a while since I’ve looked for one. I opted to get the Bowhouse RC battery tray with brace. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Chassis brace I made one, PM me your email and I can send an STL if you have access to a printer. |

Re: Chassis brace I bought some 3mm threaded rod and sleeve today but along with nuts it looks a bit messy and in the way of the shocks. |
Re: Chassis brace Just ordered some delrin rod. Man that's expensive! |

For links I use 4mm by 16mm grub screws and Traxxas Revo rod ends, or Jato when needed. Attachment 386648 |

How does it hold up over time? I know it’s splitting hairs but wouldn’t the weight benefit be better if the lower links were metal and the uppers delrin? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Chassis brace Some of your links were bent, I take it you just heat them up? I've never used delrin before and was amazed how difficult it was to ge an m3 screw into a 2.5 hole. Knew it would be tight but man I nearly rounded the hex's! |

Yes, just a bit of heat, hold bend and let cool. 2.5mm is a bit small to thread 3mm, I use 7/64" drill bit, which equals 2.78mm, and never have any issues. |
