Summary

This custom part protects the rear bumper and suspension a-arms from being scraped away over time when bottoming out on jumps. Currently the long ribs on the Low Center of Gravity chassis near the motor and below the rear axle are worn down so much that they do not protect anything when the truck bottoms out.

This part's cut-outs should fit over top the rear bumper and chassis ribs to help it stay in place. I plan to attach this piece with super glue, double-sided tape, or something tacky like gum. If none of that works, I'll fasten it to the chassis with machine screws and nuts.
