were does that mount? i looks like it goes to the bumper but my bumpers are kinda crappy so i dont know if it could go there. i also fixed my fuel problem. the fuel tube inside was split so i took that tube out and replaced it with some new fuel line.

nice truck badboy i see you have proline shocks do you have your stock shocks still i just blew appart 2 of them.

yes, it mounts on the bumper. but right on the center of the bumper.

Status: offline 		wouldnt it be better to attach it to the chassis, though? it would probably hold up to the impacts better. but then again the bumper can flex and give a little whereas the chassis wont.

Status: offline 		Thanks, that is not a bad idea, just make the center pin have a deeper flat spot. Thanks, anything other you guys have done?

i think this is a great design, from my experience with it. i don't have any comparisons... but this was has been excellent.
the guy i bought this off, got excellent reviews for it in "RC Driver Magazine", and claims to have them sold all over the globe. here's the link to his auction on ebay, and the link to the review.

Status: offline 		im allways breaking stuf now that i know i can fix anything for free. so earlier i was driving and i broke a shock tower. took it off put some of my little metal strips on screwed them up nice and reassembled. while my shocks were half off i decided it would be a good time to put some fuel tubing around the shaft so they will not bottem out and i could jump more. it works great. after if fixed it up i went outside and drove. the shock tower held up good. i was doing some nice front flips. it was awsome!
