CRT.5 Body Mounts - what are you using?
 
Ok, after lots of work I've made my E-CRT.5 pretty bullet proof for my go for broke race and bash style of driving. However, I still break the rear body mount regularly and I'm sick of buying a $10 parts tree for a body mount. Has anyone else found a good replacement that is either a lot more durable or doesn't cost $10.

Thanks!

I had my problems with the front posts so I have been using TC4 body posts (shave the little plastic nub off that is under the mounting hole). I think they will fit on the back too, but so far they aren't bash proof :(

I've been using stampede / ruster mounts - Just cut them of and drill a 3mm hole through them.

OK I found ones to replace the back body mount that I break most frequently. I rarely break the front mounts since moving them to the back of the front shock tower.

The mount I'm using now is the CEN Matrix TR body mounts. It fits great on the rear shock tower. I just cut off the little knub (too big to fit in the crt.5 slot) and attached it with the stock screw. It's about 50% bigger diameter and seems unbreakable.

Here's a pic of the item:

I also think the RC8T body mounts would work good, especially on the front tower.
