Thanks man this will really help I’ve been trying to explain to a mate how to install them and figured hey there’s probably a step by step on YT 👌 nice simple easy to understand.. perfect tutorial mate
How has it held up to abuse? Thinking about doing the same thing but worried that with a few violent rollovers it would damage the bar or rip it out of the body
If your really worried about durability u can get one that integrate into a roof rack/cage system they seem to be more durable as they have more mounting points.. 👌
@@cryptonic4576 - You had a perfect factory vehicle. After you got done it had 4 holes in it and a light bar covering the awesome Gunk logo. My Traxxas black 1979 Ford Bronco XLT ranger for example had no light bar or rack on the real thing. I didn't know that and ruined my original body. Don't forget the naughty extra hole for the light wires. I made one mistake after another. I have a new body now and the old one is perfect for bashing. Lesson learned. I'm not a basher really, I'm a crawler yet I'm sure you get the picture.
@@zeekmx1970 I understand you. I just like the look of the light bar. I have since moved to the Traxxas UDR. The slash is now a showpiece, and a reminder for how this was my entry into RC. While I didn't do the best of jobs, I like what I did. "Its what makes you happy, that matters." -Kevin Talbot
@@cryptonic4576 - If Talbot said it, I'm not going to challenge it. even if he drives like crap he's still the best RC mechanic around. He's absolutely fearless about it.

For the most part it has held up quite well. Only receiving a few scratches. Depending on placement, durability will vary.
