3-wheeled Z guide for 20x20 V-Slot (D-Bot)

With leftover 20x20 V-Slot from the D-Bot build, I transformed the 3-wheeled design of the Z guide into a linear rail guide for the front. In the renderings, the red one on the left is the original 3-wheeled Z guide created by NickRimmer. The blue one on the right is my modified, 20x20 version. I also ran FEM analysis on the two parts because I was highly curious about the differences between using 2020 vs 2040 V Slot. From my calculations, I've concluded that there are no significant differences and it's a suitable replacement to use the lighter, cheaper 2020 V Slot.
