cool vehicle,, our custom shock towers and shocks don't think will fit bodies without extensive mods from what I see so far

The rear shocks fasten to the cage not a shock tower.

They mount to the cage, like an Exo Terra. That's unfortunate. That means you can't run without the cage. Tuning by plug color is going to be a challenge.

Someone should make a quick release for that cage would be very nice!

Very much a challenge!!!!!!

The roof panel can be removed to access the plug

 

[Deluge]

You'll have to remove the hoops over the plug on the inner cage, as well. I'm building an Exo Terra at the moment and I can tell that tuning the shocks or making gear changes is going to be a challenge. You have to remove the cage every time, and with all of those screws it could get old, fast.

They should've went the HPI route and made the cage easy to remove like the Apache C1. Just a few body clips and the cage is off.

Rob, you are my hero. LOL

You are so smart Rob (add sarcasm here). LOL.

I ordered more from you the other day. Extra parts!!!!

Yea as rob stated even after you remove the roof panel there is the XB cage in the way of the plug and the front of the cage is over the H and L Needles I left the front part off.

The roof panel is to hard to remove with the screws provided in it

All you have to do is cut out the piece blocking the carb but leave the main supports

I have a issue ,what do you all do with a outerwears crankcase cover on the Chimera ,I put one on mine and it seems like it would get tore up from the rear driveshaft going under the engine.

Make your own. Pretty easy with some screen.

 

[Mycbr6rr]

That looks good but how do you mount it ,what is used to hold it down ?

I use Shoe Goo. I've seen others use epoxy, silicon etc...
