Default wheelie bar???

Is there anyone out there that makes a wheelie bar for an RC10GT? I've done some looking but with no results.

That looks very very sweet. Is it held on just by the 2 screws for the batt case? Have you had any problems with it at all? How high off the ground is the tire? And, last but not least do you have any problems with jumps or such??? Again that is cool, you get 2 [sm=thumbup.gif][sm=thumbup.gif] from me.

Yes, it's held on by the two screws on the battery case, but as long as you don't land on it on a weird angle it is very durable. It hasn't caused any problems, the tire is about 2 inches above the ground, so It wouldn't interfere with jumps unless they were at an extreme angle, If you are serious about the wheelie bar, just email me your address and I can put the price at around 10.00 for the 2 of them. My email is [email protected]

I would also need to make the battery case that the wheelie bar bolts onto, Which is still in the $10.00

One more piece of information, now that I think about it, the $10.00 will be for just the one set, the wheelie bar and the battery case, seems pretty fair. Thanks again,

Useing your pics as a guide, I have made one. Thank you so much. I just couldn't get a picture in my head of how to make one, and how to mount it. I moded mine to 2 wheels about 3 inches apart, after trying the single wheel. When it comes back on the bar it doesn't walk with the 2 tires.
Again, THANKS!!!

That’s a good idea for a wheelie bar. I like to make things also. This is my first attempt at making a wheelie bar for my rustler. I might make a different one later. It works okay for now.


Yeah I know my tires are backwards . The day of that pic I was trying that out to see if the traction would be any different.
