Title: Yet another Stampede 4x4 thread !!! Post by: LBM on April 18, 2012, 08:18:37 PM Just got my new Stampede 4X4 few days back. I am actually new to this side of the game. I am from Delhi and people get a hard time getting the good stuff.
Any ways just in few runs I managed to break the front suspension arm. Pics to follow !!! Was (http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i154/low_bass_makker/20120406_230629Medium.jpg) Now (http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i154/low_bass_makker/20120406_230655Medium.jpg) Then I decided to give it a try. I decided to make a extension on the damaged arm till the spares arrive. I cut the damaged part and made the hinge point out of steel.

Hope it will work till the original part arrives. Title: Re: Yet another Stampede 4x4 thread !!! Post by: gbisht on April 18, 2012, 08:43:20 PM Wow Nice Repair....
