V2 wheelie bar, knex peice did not withstand the drop test :D
this one is made out of 1/8th thick 1in aluminum stock, 5/16ths all-thread axle drilled out knex wheels.
the axle is notched for the big screw to keep it from moving side-to-side.
there is about 6 zipties holding it to the bumper :D

you should drill some holes in the actual skid and place it the way you have it but have a screw threw the skid and bar.

brushlessboy16 08.08.2008 10:54 AM

i was thinking that but the skid is really flimsy and would put my wheelie angle out of wack :D

bl-is-future 08.08.2008 10:55 AM

actually that will help with them high power wheelies. It will stabilize once it is up. If it is really solid you risk actually breaking things.

i have it ziptied to the bumper, its gott plenty of flex but is sturdy, the skid is just a 1/8th thick peice of plastic:neutral:

bl-is-future 08.08.2008 11:01 AM

i just
hope the zip ties dont break on you that is all. i have tried something similar with a shock tower and it held for a while but not great.

trev3813 08.08.2008 11:02 AM

nice ben, should have left the zip tie ends. the turkey was cool, but you killed it :cry:
