Stampede Body Mounts.. - 12.11.2007, 10:15 AM

Does anyone know a site where I can buy aluminum front/back body mounts for a xl-1 stampede? i can find the integy shock towers that come with them, but none sold seperately. I plan on buying the stampede super chasis kit but want to be sure to have all the addons before buying the chassis..

thanks,
Frags

I agree with rootar. You want plastic in places where there is a lot of instant shock. With aluminum body posts, there'd be a much greater chance of not only bending the posts, but also ripping through the body because they can't flex.
