these little tricky clips

[novak]

I don't know for your trucks but my warhead duratrax is full of these little nasty clips and I had to remove dozens of them to update my truck and replace most of the black plastic parts by shiny blue aluminum parts (shock towers, all suspension arms, bumpers, plates underneath).
I added some lights on the body...it looks awesome now. I'll try to get you some pictures soon.

So what's my question right ?
well do you have a special tool or trick to remove these 3.0 mm clips ?
... same question to put them back in place ?

thank you and enjoy the summer (as a teacher, I get summer off).

we're having a heat wave now in Massachusetts, it's 92 - not bad I love it.

take care,
Novak.

E-clips, gotta love em'. I assume that's what you are talking about. I just use needle nose pliers. How long you had the Warhead? I always liked the design of that truck but I am scared of Duratrax. They do not have the best rep. for quality.

yes E-clips...the warhead is a wonderful truck, easy to update, fix, tune-up , very powerful, beahves well in turns, jumps high, great look and overall I alway got a very good customer service from duratrax. The plans and list of parts included in the box are very well done, complete and easy to understand.
Parts are easy to obtain anywhere like Tower Hobbies as well as updates.

It's an overal great truck from beginner to advanced. The engine supertigre 4.4cc is very powerful too.

finally, easy to start with the included electric quik-starter...
