Default My new shock mounts.

Yep, no more battery tray mounts for me, I have taken the shocks off/on a few times and have managed to strip 2 of the 4 plastic mounting locations, So I whipped these up, I think they turned out pretty good. As a side note I can also use them to adjust the pinion angle easily. What do you think?

dude explain to me how exactly did you whip these up? because if you can just whip up those lord knows what you can do if you decide to beat up something rather then just whip it! can you whip up more and how much?

LOL no battery tray. Now you'll have to use an extension cord. That's silly. Good idea to each his own.

I can get you the part numbers if you want, I'm not running the tray, What you see there is my complete rig, I put my electronics on the links as well as my lipo pack.

Yes I would like the part #s. I think in the future I might need
to do something different for mounting the shocks and prolly
be a good idea to get rid of some top heavy weight by eliminating
the battery tray.

Two things I see that wont work about the stage two kit.
The first is the front cross brace on the ckrc kit it needs a bend or raised to clear a normal 540 can.

Two when the dig unit comes out where are you going to mount the servo?

Looks nice. Are you experiencing any slippage in the links(pivoting) seeing that they are just supported on either end and angled with 1 contact screw point?

thanks
