    Awesome stuff David 🤗. HUGE thanks to my buddy Manny for sharing this Killer mod with me. It's been a game changer for sure. Nice job with the exact details Brother 👌and overall update on the XMaxx. I'd agree she hasn't liked those huge flat landers onto concrete 😱🤣🤣. Have a great weekend my friend!!!! 🚀🚀😎💪👊👊

    Another great bench video David. Great length explaining how to this mod. Mine has been holding killer. Has kept my bulkheads together. Had an awesome run with Bertha yesterday. She held up great throughout.

    I have been using the steel spacers and it helps but the upper bulkheads are prone to breaking if your bashing hard. I check them for cracks after each bad landing. I have replaced a few.

    GREAT UPGRADE!!!! I’m so shocked, my xmaxx I really can’t brake after years of mods, but I would destroy some cars you have good luck with. I think it comes down to driving style. See upgrade Bars&Tone. I may need to try it? 👏👍💯👊🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

    Since the room between two ends of arm is for only one tie bar, do you file the arm or the bulkhead off for the second tie bar?

  • @toxicshot7728
    @toxicshot7728 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Do you have to trim the arms or the bulk head down? Since the the arms fit tight, I would think that extra metal on the back of the bulk head would make it to think for the arm to fit around.

    • @BarstoneRC
      @BarstoneRC  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yes, you do have to shave the inside of the a arms out a little bit on both sides but it has caused no weakness I’ve never broke them.
