Well, I would expect you would put the plate on the rear, so if you come down on the rear of the truck, it won't rip the pins out like it does on the front. Most (if not all) 1/8th buggies/truggies have an alloy pin retainer on at least the most forward of the front of the bulkhead and the...

Oh, I figured the rear was the same as the front for the most part. I just know on my t-maxx that I broke the front and rear arms almost as frequently as each other. Probably more so on the rear actually, from landing on the rear with the nose in the air. Since the wheels can't turn like the...
