Lookin good, should keep anything from banging it around too. Did you custom fab that wing mount to mount to the shock towers or are you able to purchase it?

Looks good Blackrain" I think you may have posted it, there was a company that made a mount to run a 28 on the Nemesis because I would like to run a Pico 28 in mine. I think it was New Era models but I am not sure.

I just installed the Matrix wing mount on my Nemesis, it's not really made for that truck and it seems kind of flimsy the way it's mounted to the Nemy. I think I will try one of the New Era Models wing mounts.

are you just using 2 screws threw the 2 holes in the middle of the shock tower. if so thats what i did for my first wing mod didnt hold up for long due to the weight of the truck doring roll overs.

ya when i did it that way i had a hard time figuring out how i could build a bracket that would work, plus didnt have the proper tools at the time. maybe some kind of bar across the top of the tower that the wing can bolt the 2 top holes against

if you cant get it to work all i used is the mugen mbx5t wing mount and a metal plate drilled 4 holes and ran it threw the shock tower. the mugen mount is tough doesnt have all the cut out spaces like the matrix mount
