Stop talking about me!



Captured ends are the way to go on these things.

I put the .75 rear buggy hexes on the front of my truck as well. No issues with ball cups popping off since I've done that.

Default 22T body

Does any one know if you can buy the rear wing seperate from the body?
Side note: Any custom pre-painted 22T bodies for sale?

How many racks have you broke since you put the captured on? i would think that would put added pressure on the steering rack when it cant pop off to relieve pressure.

Default Trailing spindles feedback from those that have ran them

Frank or anyone that has ran their truck with the new aluminum trailing spindles, can we get some feedback please?

We don't offer any trailing spindles for the 22T. The 4mm trailing spindles are for the 22 buggy only.
