Is there another option besides buying what on the link?

I would get this one:

http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_...ducts_id/13447

It is the direct part kit for the CRT.5. Includes two front mount and two rear mounts.

Also - someone recommended to me mounting the front mounts in reverse (ie: screws in from the front) and even though I had to cut two new holes in the body and the mounting isn't totally perfect I have yet to bust a body post for a while.

Just use a set of stampde / rustler mounts - Cut them off and drill a hole through - Cheap as chips and last a good deal longer

I busted the tops off mine fast (flips and lid slides on pavement) and as I have the ext chassis, none of the parts for the ext version can be found.

So.. I cut the stumps off flat and drilled and tapped a 3mm hole thru the post and used 3mm cap head bolts instead. Tons of wrecks and no breaks.

You can see it here if you squint:

Or how about these. Got tired of replacing the plastic mounts when they broke or got ground off.
