Okay :smile: The guy at nitro house told me the upgraded brace would bolt directly to the chassis & not have to mount to the box . I'll figure something out :lol:.

The front one yes, but the rear one just looks like a lighter replacement judging by the shape. He could be right, but it doesn't look like it to me...

This is what I did - Custom rear brace and an old MBX front brace (in addition to gtp brace) - Rock solid and no issue for motor placement

If you can make your own you should. It's much more satisfying.

thank's but it's acctually not adjustable it just looks that way :lol: . This box is made for FP lipo . It is also long enough to fit the zippy R lipo in case i decide to get one latter .

I made them that way so the plate would hold the box & end parts together when ther mounted . I got some more work done today . I made my new RR brace with a hole for the fan that will go underneath to help cool the MM esc .
