I dabbled in bracing and haven't broken a rear upper assembly since, but did learn how to drive more gooder, and this is what I was doin':
I did have quite a few crashes with this setup, and the worst thing that happend was it popped out of the hole I drilled in the vent, and have had to drill another hole and lost a few screws, but better than replacing the whole mount!!! I used the stock push rods...
.......I love your build threads mistercrash....my revo wouldn't be what it is without your insight!
