not true titanium is very flexible yet it is very hard to twist it in the first place. its kind of having the best of both steel and hardened steel all in one plus it will retain its shape better than steel after a twist. thats just few of the many reasons that makes titanium such an awesome metal  |

question- what wing mount is that? was there any mods or other things you needed to do to get it to fit? and are you running the stock tower? |

Mugen mount, no mods needed and stock tower just sum long bolts a few washers and sum nuts.
4 bolts threw the shock tower and body mounts just made the holes bigger |

Im sorry that i cant be specific as i did this during summer but the guy at the hobby shop gave me sum assortted bolts it came with like 2 of like 3 sizes.
Once u look at it u will see what i mean all i did was use a body reamer to make the holes bigger in the body mount and slot on the shock tower then used the bolts and washer to prevent it from pulling threw i could take sum better pics if you would like? |

The shock towers arent interchangeable with the non x bulkhead but the wing mount will still work on the old school shock tower.
Nice truck man and dont u love how they offer tiny and huge bodies for our trucks nothing in the middle? |

| thats good. thanks for the comment on my truck. o, and yea i do love how the companies out there really havent made medium size bodies. they make bodies. they have the mgt body which i want to get but i dont wanna spend $30 on another cp body when i havent even run mine yet. when it cracks and gets damaged ill make that my basher body and get a f350 or something like that. i had this crazy idea a few days ago to cast a body out of steel instead of lexan. how crzy would that be. it would be indestructable. lol anyway back to the real world...does amain sell the aluminum braces for the mount or no? i didnt see it |
