will you be selling them too?

I'd be interested in the rear top deck, at the right price.

Looks really good should prove to be the fix over the 'one run top decks'.

One thing, after having a quick look at a friends B44 last night. Just make sure the turnbuckles clear the additional material you've added when on full up travel.

I noticed the ball cup was pretty close on the standard B44 I handled yesterday. It's nothing a quick run over with a file wouldn't sort.

Looks to be pretty `BEEFY`... This part should make a lot of B44 users happy

Wed night,

5 or 6 packs of cells run in the car last night and no breakages or signs of cracking, even after umpteen heavy knocks

Hopefully they'll survive the weekends activities then they should be available

The parts that Glenn has had tested in this thread all work very well, i tested them over the weekend at teesside's final meeting, using them for the long jump, high jump, and all other events that they hosted, having some pretty bad crashes and they all lasted, did break front and rear shock tower in one crash.

So Glenn, if you can get some thicker front and rear shock towers ill have some, sure some other people would too?
