|  Mini axle truss
I was bored yesterday so I made this axle truss for my MRC. I doubt it will ever need a truss, but it looks better than the old servo mount. tomorrow I will start on the front truss/servo mount.    |

I like the idea. Gives me the idea of doing something similar but for a 4 link upper mount.

It will make a great upper link mount for a 4 link setup. It will also keep the axle from bending and breaking, not that this truck will see huge 100' jumps or anything. the front is stronger than the stock plastic servo mount. and a standard size servo will fit easier.  here is the rear partially finished. you can see it is only a piece of flat aluminum bent to clear the housing and screw down to the servo posts. each end is held down by the knuckle screw on the front or the rear lock out screw. the pieces in the middle with the holes drilled in them are to make it look better. they don't do any thing else. | |

I dig it! This is right up my alley. I'm trussing a yota housing in the garage.  How are you attaching the center pieces to the upper truss? Glue? Kevo |
