XB4 Front bulkhead breakages
 
All

We have had 4 front diff bulkhead breakages this last 2 weeks of racing, one on a 2015 4WD and 3 on a 2014 4WD. Has anyone else had these issues and is there an aftermarket product that can help. Found a rear bulkhead protector for the 2014 so might put them on the front.

Anyone got any help and ideas to stop this ?

Cheers Steve

Seen some XB4 drivers using a small lexan front shock tower protector - probably home-made.

Presumably just to absorb the impact which presumably breaks the bulkhead due to the tower being strong...

We use this product on all our cars, never had an issue since:

A bit pricey, but lets you finish the race.

I have something very similar to that on mine from Ralls Racing, not broke a bulkhead since fitting it in 2013.
