| Tony1, I checked with my LHS this past weekend on them and they said that they were no longer available. Time to get creative or find an alternative...  EDIT: I was searching for those myself, then I couldnt remember where they were even used. So I went searching on here and found this thread CLICK HERE to figure out where/how they are used again. Then realized I shouldn't really need them at all if im using this aluminum part in its place WK Billet Upper Mounts Hope it helps ... Last edited by Nerve; 10-16-2007 at 08:10 AM. |

| I have been keeping my eye on them for a while now and the expected arrival on tower hobbies keeps getting pushed back. I just took the advice from someone else's post and bought some aluminum C Channel 1/4 inch and made my own. They are a bit sloppy, but it gets the job done. I'm going to post my build one of these days when i get my crawler finished and i'll get a pic of the ones i made. But i'm going to keep my eyes open for those because they look nicer than the ones i did (my metal working abilities suck). |

| Yeah, i looked at those as well. The top screw hole would work fine (if you have a servo mount on the axel for example), but the bottom one (that needs to screw into the axle housing) didn't seem like it would work all that well without some modification because the screw would need to go in from the angled side. That's just my take, and since i'm very new to all this...take it with a grain of salt  .EDIT: I was just thinking that it would work if you just raise the position where the links mount up. In other words, just extend that portion of the mount up a bit so you could have the hole for the axle housing screw, and have two additional holes for the upper link mount. I don't know how this will effect the dynamics of the suspension though. This is what i was referring to, the "extension" i mentioned is highlighted in yellow. (not to scale! do not use, just for illustration purposes): Last edited by goo; 10-16-2007 at 01:04 PM. |
