Redcat Gen 8 Front Shock Towers and Panhard mount

cults3d

This is a short nosed front shock mount for the redcat gen 8, specifically for the creep body but should work with most shorter bodies, It has a few tweaks other than just being shorter, The bumper mounts are slotted to allow many different bumpers that have the removable mount found on amazon The servo has been moved up slightly to align the drag link with the panhard bar to fix the bump steer, this also allows you to flip the stock servo horn facing in which gives better steering geometry as it makes the drag bar parallel with the axle as well as makes it no longer the furthest point out and will no longer hit things when going over them. The panhard mount is separate allowing you to make a custom one if desired and the included one moves the mount foward slightly which makes the panhard parallel with the axle, if you shorten the panhard slightly in combination with this its fixes all the steer geometry of the gen 8 though its not required. I print at .15 with support only on the bed and it does great. Also I print the panhard in either ABS or pure nylon for impact resistance and the towers in CF-Nylon for its incredible strength and lightweight.
