Do mudguards really work on 6S rigs?

Hey now! Don't be knockin' shock socks!

Nah, I totally agree with ya'. I wouldn't put them on anything else. Just adding to my MD Terps theme!

Certainly not telling anyone not to use them, just that I don't..I'm a quirky guy I suppose. I'm always against the wind, LOL.

In my experience mud guards work but don’t expect miracles. One area I found them especially effective is running in a gravel lot. Without read mudguards, my arms and shocks were getting beat to crap from rocks being flung by the front tires… with mudguards, less so.

Yes, same opinion. My K8S was a couple of minutes on gravel and was like sand blasted without mudguards :S... The Mojave hasn´t try it so hard but has mudguards which began to schred (3D print)...

With TBone now closed, where can I find rear mudguards for stock 6s EXB? RPM has them but only for their arms.

I got mine from Basherqueen for my Kraton6s- about $20

They’re really easy to 3D print if you know someone with a printer.

@Tex Koder does 3D printing here and has a design....

I have them on my 6s exb and just put some on my 8s exb...makes a big difference!

Just ordered the BQ version. Saving up my @Tex Koder money for a carbon fiber wing.

Unless you can print with TPU I would just buy the material and cut them yourself. PLA would break very easily.

I’m hoping for good results when my set arrives, just got done with a 40+ minute lawn shredding session, and then 30 minutes of (mostly) rear cleanup.

I find them useful to keep the large muddy/damp debris off of the shock shafts…I made these out of a laundry detergent bottle,wrapped with gorilla tape & affixed with the ARRMA FORUM decals

I like this! I wonder what other materials we could recycle...
