Destroyed the stock Kraton bumper, and while I wait for the LHS to order an RPM replacement, I decided to design & 3D print a hinge pin retainer. It seems silly that the RPM bumper needs another bumper (AR330230 from the Talion?) to keep the pins in, and that can't even be purchased on its own. Instead it comes with a bunch of other parts (not sure if those items are shared with the Kraton, or Talion specific?)

Anyway, here is how it turned out... Hopefully it will do the job.

Those parts are actually very useful as the rod ends do wear as they are plastic. I get about 6 to 8 months before they start showing signs of slop. About the only thing you probably would never end up using is the sway bar ends as they don't really wear down that much and the body posts.

It looks good btw. (y)
 
refresh :D do you maybe have a file to print it out? i would need it until my parts shows up :)
