Costom, all aluminum e-maxx wheelie bar! - 08.30.2008, 07:32 PM

I havn't gotten to test it yet sence CC still hasn't sent my MM ESC back to me (called them and left a message about it). But i'm pritty confedent that i will do well! But sence the whole thing is aluminum and sence i have FLM bulks, i'm a little worried that thair wont be any give for when it lands on the wheelie bar.

Bit small, but looks solid- what did it used to be in a previous life?

well, when my maxx was stock, it was a traxxas wheelie bar. but i soon found out that those brake ez! And i hatted the sound of those plastic wheels on the driveway!!
After that, i drilled a hole in the stock bumper and mounted those same wheels on the end of it. but the car would just flip backwards from the wheels not being far enough back. plus the bumper would bend a lot when the car was sitting on it becouse about half the bumper was on the road from it scraping the ground so much! The hardest part was trying to get the only bumper off becouse the screw didn't hardly have a head anymore

well, today i found a big flaw with the disign. each wheel is only held on by 1 screw so the screw would bend really easy! So i re built it wheelie bar again!
