its a nice design BUT you still have to remove alot to get to the diffs. all the screws for the skid plate,lower bumper.bulk head brace screws and the drive shafts pins.

still a tad easier then taking all that stuff off.

well i just took out the diff to change the fliud with the new hr qc bulkheads. it did make it easier. with just taking the skid plate off and undoing the drive line the diff slid out after taking out the blue portion of the bulkhead..

so these bulks do make taking the diff out a bit easier. how durable....dont know yet.

quick update with some pics !

DONT BUY THESE BULKHEADS ! :mad:

after a run and a not so hard hit i bent the bulkhead pretty bad.bad enough where the quick change portion will not come out due to the bent screw.

and the lower hing pin....

Nice review. Time to upgrade to FLM combos with ofna buggy gears. No need to ever take them apart again.

ahh! that sucks! how much are you out?

They should of channeled the removable part once more so it becomes a structural part.

What you need to run with these are the solid al bumper mount spacers. You all know the littlew blace x shaped plastic thing that goes between the bulks, and the bumper mount screwws thread into is very weak. I have an emaxx that has these bulks that I got in trade. I also have some of the al spacers that I plan to run. HR should include these parts with the bulks, just makes sense.

if you want to run these bulkheads you need a shelf queen

A pair of SweetStrobe Braces would be the ticket for this design. There's no hole for the bottom part of the brace on the HR bulks but the top alone would give a huge amount of extra protection, plus make them out of 7075 alloy
