CRT.5 Big Bore Shocks done easy & cheap

[GO-RIDE.com]

I have some updates to the upper mounting system for the Revo shocks. I found that with the Ofna part 36610 the shock cap was hitting this part and not allowing the shock to swing backwards in the event of a broken A-arm. Because of this I bent a shock shaft. Granted the whole front left side of the car was destroyed (a-arm, knuckle, c-hub, ball cap, shock shaft) so bending a shock shaft on that hard of an impact may not be avoidable.

So, I've removed part 36610 and replaced it with the original crt.5 upper shock mount. However, I did not remove the Revo pivot ball. So I'm just using the crt.5 shock mount as a spacer. This moves the shock even farther from the shock tower and allows the shock to pivot rearward in the event of a broken a-arm.

Now to mount the upper shock all you need to add is (2) 35mm screws and (2) washers and lock nuts for behind the body mount. The other parts are stock.
