Thanks Chris

Agree with you about the skid plate: I expect to mount it only when running on sever abusing tracks 'cause XX4 chassis bottom end is quite fragile where rear bumper is mount

Have you got any pics of the car without the lipos in, so we can see the detail of the brass lipo tray?

Also love to see more detail of the front wishbone savers. Do you use a custom screw into the hub?

Also like the rear Ali hinge pin brace and rear bumper holder. Have you done anything at the other end to retain the hinge pins?

Hi Dalla,

I will take some pics without LiPo in so that you will see the Manutech Racing LiPo weight balancer...

The front wishbone savers have been home made few years ago when I were racing X5. The screws are coming out of the kit but have been tapered so that same lenght are in the hub carrier. I will also post some pics

About the rear hinge pins, they are only stopped by the rear bumper as they are in the kit.

Cheers

Superbly clean, in my opinion one of the 4 most important things in a kit.

Reliable, tunable, clean...and fast, of course.

Hope you don't mind I use a couple of ideas
