Does anyone else find this mod totally pointless?
I’m on my 3rd wheelie bar now. The first two to break were the plastic arrma ones, both broke on the first day of installing them. I like to bash hard and do quadruple flips etc so I know it’s my driving style but I find them really weak.
the 3rd one I bought was from GPM, so an aluminium version. This hasn’t broken and to be honest it never will, but I have snapped a few screws that go into the bulkhead. Annoying but no biggy. I tend to only use this when I’m doing dirt trail stuff and not on my ramp as I’m scared I’ll break other parts if I land on the back end. Gonna sell this part on eBay soon I think
but most the time now I run my rig without the wheelie bar, I’ve also experimented with some longer screws into the wing mount that bolts through the shock tower and it seems to be holding up.
would be nice to get a wheelie bar on that lasts longer than 5 minutes but I can’t honestly be bothered with the hassle anymore - what are your thoughts?
