Finally had a minute to install today...and we'll both the end links of my rod ends hit the front dif case brace housing whatever it's called. I assume this isn't normal lol...and tips or pointers? I'm about to just grind down the plastic for clearance and keep on moving

Sorry mate one thing I never bought.

 

[Jshaff16]

I'm just happy it finally showed up lmao

Here is both left and right clearly hits by a lotta bit

 

[siblues]

Damn yeah that would take quite a bit of the material to be removed in the weakest part of that link.

 

[Jshaff16]

I did say a lotta bit lol...I won't take it out of the link tho.

I have the aluminum braces on mine I don't know if they are the same thickness?

 

[Jshaff16]

Even the stockers hit as well. I've been considering doing aluminum from and rear diffs and braces. Already have the center uninstalled. But after shipping and such it'll be ready for next spring.

Til then I could focus on my 5b



I'd rather shave down the braces

You sir, stand correct!

2 broke rc's and no time. I'm doomed

 

[21bangbang]

Nothing but FID's clever way to sell bulkheads. They got you good.?

 

[Jshaff16]

I'll figure something out don't know what just yet

 

[crucialRC]

What happened to the stock one that got you to replace it?

 

[Jshaff16]

I went thru hell with my HR servo saver few months back. This was recommended to give a shot and well it just got here a week or two back. I broke stock set up many months ago and went with the hot racing one.

 

[crucialRC]

?Will a tlr 5b one fit? I've never had any issues with the stock one.

 

[Jshaff16]

This is on my db not the 5b

Just buy the bulkhead kit, its a good upgrade anyways. Probably be my next purchase.

In the end I probably will. Even though I hate but parts "just cuz" May as well order snow chains while I'm at it. By the time it shows up I'll have snow on the ground here.

Don't forget over 3 1/2 months for it to get here. No idea if 'Rona is still messing with overseas shipping or not
Totally just looked em up. They're cheap. Like $37...may as well. If I keep throwing random aluminum bling I'm going to be forced to upgrade my motor. This weight per pound is going the wrong way. Car is only getting heavier and power is staying the same lol

Just drop a tooth on the pinny and call it good. ??
