Consider this a friendly warning, we have a wanted forum...you've used it before. Do not request parts in the open forums again, or action will be required.

looks pretty cool, although that much wire at that diameter is going to have quite a bit of rotation before you get much anti-roll force. How tough is it to get a battery in there?

Doesn't the losi rear bulkhead have a spot for a sway bar? I can't recall, but I want to say it's much like the rc10 configuration, where you can place a roll bar back behind the tower projected rearward to pick up the back of the arms, over top of the top link.

the battery fits perfect goes in/out with no issues at all and doesnt hit the battery no clearence issues. well the reason i went with the sway bar this way was that i wanted to use the rrp side bulkheads since all the other parts are rrp items 8)

Well, that looks functional, if somewhat over-engineered. Lots of extraneous parts and points-of-failure, lots of grub screws to threadlock in...but functionally, it looks intact.

you could do away with either the inner set or outer set of collars, if you wanted. even if a set was to loosen, it probably wouldn't move around much.
