Yeah these work on the Brat/Frog too. Well, the 'no rear bumper' version anyway. I've got one of those left at the moment so if you want it, just let me know

Lovely, I will have that last one please. PM sent.

Got, fitted, happy.  Thanks ever so much man, so much better than my attempt at doing this.

Thanks everyone for all your kind words. I'm amazed at how fast they're arriving in the European countries! Lets see how long it is before the US, Australia and NZ orders start to land.

Thanks again

[Frog Jumper]

Looking at these pix and my own Frog and I'm pretty sure this will have some issues fitting around the CRP parts...  I will probably have some suggestions for you MHeald...

There's still 4-5 sets available so you're ok  I don't think I'll be doing any more sets after this as while these have been snapped up, the last few sets aren't moving as fast so I don't want to order another 30 to be made quite yet.

What I may do is open pre-orders once these are gone and once I have say, 20 orders or so, I'll get the next batch made.

Thanks!

[i_am_scarecrow]

Awesome! Put me down for set then, pm me your paypal and I'll send some pennies

PM sent for 1 set for the Monster Beetle.

Parts arrived here in NZ today, now to fit them up.

Still need to paint that body.....

Fitted and working great.

I also upgraded the motor to an Absima 15T so this should work nicely.

Huge thanks,

What is that swing arm extension you have your rear shock attached to???  Where did you get it???  It looks like a neat hop-up!

[Gordini_2003]

I used the suspension brace I found from http://www.fulloption.co.uk/ It basically screws into the existing holes on the chassis where you would normally screw in the shock, basically creating the ideal shock angle that can be played with.

They do a lot of upgrade parts, your best bet would be to get in touch from the website I think.

I also put the CRP suspension supports on this. The insert into the gearbox makes a huge difference to the stiffness of the back end. Basically right now this back only moves up and down with only a tiny tiny bit of side to side possible.

Need to sort out the rear bumper though....the wheelies keep knocking off my number plate :-)

Gordon.

 

[mheald]

SO happy to see all these arriving and being fitted. I feel like a proud dad

2 'with bumper' sets left!!

My number plate is long gone, as is the number plate light and the aerial tube holder is now screwed to the back bumper lol
