Scotty napalm Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 What are the 4 alloy lugs for on the rear of the chassis ??There replaceable Will be honest 30dn do a one piece 7075 chassis for £90This chassis I have, only the front/rear sections are 7075 the main chassis is weaker Obviously stronger than stock Losi But I would have got the 30dn if I had seen it first Could have got 2 at £90 each and still had change for parts?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
