I have recently installed my UE knukleheads, they are great! I will still use my FLMs occassionally because they will allow the truck to be more slammed due to the additional shock mounts. I'm telling you this because I'm thinking of trying a wing. FLM's has a wing mount mount holes built in. Where other than Ebay can I find a Knucklehead wing mount? Would you feel safe landing on the wing? Do you ever jump?

Why don't you use a shorter screw on the shocks and take off the unused standoff? That is what I've done. Its just unnessisary weight.

EDIT scratch that first thing I said about no questions. But the excellent documentation statement still stands. LOL now what weight oil do you have in the CD?

But I love the asphalt!!! I have only seen the UE wing stay mounts on ebay... not sure who else would be stocking those now. I haven't really jumped the truck yet...
but i have landed the truck on the wing several times with no issues... the standoffs are ok, I don't think they're upsetting the weight of the truck that much... I'm using
50k wt in the CD... it's going to be out of commission pretty soon... so, it won't be an issue any longer.

Get a touring car!

Yeah IDK why I asked but I'm not even sure who originally made them. Who was it?

I will get a wing before its all over. The mounts that fit the VBS dont fit Knuckleheads right?

But if you've got shorter screws...

I'm sorry about the leaking, unloading and what not. How did you like the action when it wasn't leaked?

Hey Zack... I'm actually thinking about a TC3 or TC4... I believe the mounts were actually made by UE (anyone else reading this that may have a difference in opinion, please jump in)...
VBS and Knuckleheads are two completely different designs and thus will require their own mounts... I did a quick search on ebay and only found the VBS versions... send a mail to
Robin at UE and ask him if it was really his design, and if it is, does he still have them in stock.

The CD would transfer a little more to the rears when it was full of oil... turn ins would be a little tighter under power... the aluminum i ordered for my new motor/CD mount is now in the
island, so I will have the Spider in there soon to fix the problem.
