crt .5 body mount

[Arct1k]

What do ppl use - I broke off one on a rollover and now it looks like I have to buy the wing mount / front bumper to replace...

Is that correct?

Thanks

Yep, you have to buy that whole parts tree. Just last night I had to replace one of the front body posts.

i got some 1/10 or 1/12 on-road style like a pan car, easy to mod and cheap, just cut em to the right length and use the nut on it under body, then drill a very small hole for the clip

Could you pop up a pic please? thx

its by no means pretty , but it seems to work well, the body post pics are on the first page, i think they were bolink 2.5 inch, cost like $3

i also thought about contacting the monster about making them in aluminum, i know pretty much everyone here would buy them for their crt .5


in fact.....mike if you read this , id like a set of these if its possible to come up with something, although i have no way to draw these up

Came up with a different plan - Chopped off a set of traxxas pede/rustler mounts.

Dremelled a flat section (cutout) so they rest flat against the tower - with a lip.

Then drilled a 2.5mm hole through them and threaded a 3mm machine screw through it with a lock nut on the back.

For one of my hacks it actually looks pretty good!
