hmm any ideas
if you wanna drill your shock tower a b4 wing mount would work...

are they the same as the plastic b4's in alum .. if so ill try them .. was thinking of the plastic incase i have to trim them down or install screws insted of clips so i can angle the wing if needed but for mock up would be nice

if you are looking to use the wing wire method you could use traxxas aluminum wing mounts and bend your wing wire accordingly. Something like on the trx1, trx3, or the rad/rad2 I believe would work. they would come off the back of the tower instead of up from the bulkhead giving you whatever rake you want for your wing wire again...

yep. But its wing wire...there won't be any pressure on the wing unless you are using 1/4" carbon rod for wing wire :wink:

so i had some fun today of putting some of the car back together

i picked up some parts like new tierod ends as if one thing can kill you in a race #1 tirod poping off

when i got home i found a part i didnt even know i got .. an purple alum antenna holder .. cool

Image

did a quick look of the viper body and jconcept rear wing

Image

while building the car i got to rember some thing i hated .. turn buckles ... my fingers are sore now but they look cool

Image

Is that a stock associated front shock tower that was made to fit the andy's bulkhead? I think I have an actual front shock tower for that. I can trace and send you the template so you can make one.
