Danju, man I have a Integy wheelie bar and my truck walks that thing out on the bars BIG time, I can't imagine a wheel any higher than what I have on my REVO. Does yours just get up on the wheelie bar and come back down or what? It seems like it'll still almost flip over.

ha! i told you this is the ugliest wheelie bar youve ever seen. but man, this thing performs better than i thought i would. despite having only one wheel, the car is pretty stable while the front end is up...sometimes it would rock left and right but if i have precise throttle response, then i can wheelie for miles and miles...it never flips over...tell you what, next week ill PM you a vid for you to see...

Here are some of my pieces...

5B SS spark plug cover; raised up and made of Al to protect the plug.



Next were upper/lower mounts for LST shocks onto XFactor. You can also see the custom servo mount/upper link mount, custom steering linkage and if you look really close you will see the custom t-maxx driveshafts that I use.



Custom single servo mount for Mini LST... This was the first run, it has been cleaned up and painted since. Works killer.



Finally, custom Mini LST shock mounts for my mini quake that I made. I also smoothed these out, but I haven't taken an updated pic.
