I broke 2 sets of stock bulkheads this weekend, and I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with integy parts they look alright and the price looks good.

You should hold off for a little while. I believe NCNitro has a review of the new bulkheads made by RC Solutions.

What did you do to break the stock bulk heads??

 

[KIMBERWHIP]

I hit my bros tmaxx at full speed and a tree for the second set.

Do u have a link to rc solutions?

I am not sure if they are selling them yet. Contact scottm. He is a member here at RCNT and he will be able to give you more information.

I would just replace the stock parts and go on,If you place aluminum parts on your truck you are moving one weak point from one place to another and pretty soon you will have a slow 20 lb truck! Just a thought

Kimberwhip, as Mcvickj mentioned, yes I am working on a review for the RC Solutions bulks. It would have been done but I got a virus on my old pc and can't get any of my info off of it, so I have started redoing it, it should be done very soon. They are VERY nice! I would higly recommend them, they also come with some type of hardened steel hinge pins as well. Go to their website www.rc-solutions.com and check them out. They are by far one of the nicest, well made set of bulkheads on the market that I have seen.

where does that small plate go thats in the picture

 

[NCNitro]

Each hinge pin is held in place with two allen set screws for each pin, no e-clips. That plate goes across the back side of the front bulkhead, it goes from the left to right bulk, tying them together, and adding extra support for the hinge pin, it is facing the steering linkage.

 

[KIMBERWHIP]

one more question, in there caption they say that the front of the pins are captured, i dont see where they would be. can u post a pic with them installed. please.




NM i just saw it

 

[NCNitro]

Heres a shot showing the mounting location of the plate you were asking about.

 

[KIMBERWHIP]

too bad the top ones arent captured too

Well, if you want to go the cheaper route, integy's are pretty good. I ran them for awhile without any ill effects. I actually let a friend "borrow" them when I got a bug up my butt to buy ACNCM's bulkheads.

Although, rc solutions do look a lot more durable. But I've hit plenty of crap at WOT without much more than a broke shock or a shock tower.
