Homemade wheelie bars

[RaCinJason399]

Hey guys I was watching a tv show american choppers the other day and he made a wheelie bar for one of the choppers so I got the idea to make my own custom wheelie bar for my st.
all it cost me was 5 bucks for steel threaded rod and aluminum tubing to cover it up... and also some used tie rod ends. The wheels were from a toy truck.. what ever works..

Not bad looking at all if I say so myself.

That is one wacked out Maximum ST. You used the body mounts to attach a wing?!!??!

Also the body is sitting up soooo high.

By the way, what's a wheelie bar for? so you don't tip over backbards?

 

[RaCinJason399]

Yeah I got another rear body mount from a firend.. so I could have a wing and also the body on..

The wheelie bar keeps it from fliping over.

So you get wheelies out of it now or do you pic it up to do wheelies?:dance:

I moved the battery pack to the back and also put lighter tires on the front... and the tires went right up in the air.:stickup:

Just out of curiosity, I also own an st, does yours really pop wheelies?? I've never seen mine even attempt one, then again everything is stock except for the tuned pipe and team losi nipple tires.

What kind of Stadium Truck do you own?

I bet with that wheelie bar, and wing on the back that but alot of weight back there. And if he poped a whellie with those tires it had to be a milicle.

I know what american chopper episode you're talking about...that motorcycle was madd fugly. It looked so dumb it was rediculous. That was the ultimate in domestic rice.
