E-maxx Wheelie Bar
 
I have been looking for a good quality wheelie bar. I have tried a variety of wheelie bars but would like to get hold off the one below in the picture. Can anybody tell me who makes them? The wheelie bar looks very strong and meaty..

The picture is from a ebay listing.

thanks for any suggestions if you can recommend a similar good wheelie bar

The Traxxas one coming with your E-maxx worked great for me. Give it a shot before buying a new one.

I agree with the Traxxas brand. Unless you really have to have the bling, the Traxxas version is fairly well thought out.

I recognise the one n the picture, but I dont know the maker/brand. Looks too good to be integy, maybe ACNCM, dunno.

The stocker works fine, just have to avoid jumping with it attached.

+1 on Traxxas wheelie
I got the Traxxas one on my 13lb Alu Emaxx and it holds well. Pretty tough IMO

Does yours tend to pop loose if you come down wrong?

That is a failsafe...if you fall on the wrong side it will give way and not stress the wheelie bar itself or the skid. Sometime its troublesome but it prevents unwanted damage to places you dont want to happen (IMO) :yes:

I have no wheelie bar- no bumper so nowhere for it to mount.

I really need to make one though, think I have an idea of how to go about it now too (custom job again).

I agree with you guys that the traxxas wheelie bar is a good design. I think I am looking for the bLing factor. That wheelie bar looks the business - it looks like a solid piece of aluminium waiting to be polished. Looking to fit it on a shelf queen.

If anybody got any ideas of the name let me know. There is a guy on ebay who is selling it but he is refusing to deal with International buyers.

Neil - I am doing a night shift - are you working nights as well - it is 01:40am ??

No, im on summer leave from the naval college in dartmouth (no students so no work, hu-ha). Just finished building another custom motor mount for my Gmaxx, so now doing the rounds on the forums- then i'll get out of bed at 2pm and have breakfast... :D

mohanjude 08.20.2008 08:44 PM

If you got a chance post picture of the motor mount...

All in there. :)

Why not sure put a wing on and ride that?

suicideneil 08.20.2008 10:24 PM

The Stock Emaxx? That would work as a wheelie bar for sure.

Cant on mine- gmaxx shock towers simply wont accept one unless I got create again... hmmm....
