Hi, just today I crashed into a big rock and snapped part of my shock mount for my SCX10 chassis, I dont know where to get an identical part since my chassis has a certain piece facing a different way than it typically would in a higher quality chassis
the piece in the first two images attaches to the right front of the chassis

if you need any clarification please let me know

The part i need replaced (its right behind the shock -- or right beside it)

If it is a SCX10 platform then several shock mounts will fit.
There are a bunch of them on amazon and they bolt directly onto the frame rail.
You might have to buy body mounts as well if you go that route.
Crawlers are slow, I'm wondering how it broke hitting a rock.

7700kv 4s. 🤔🤪 I wonder the same. Just gonna assume the right angle and it's cold out.

I balanced the pieces on my bed so that the wouldnt move long enough to get a photo

I believe so

1. it was a pointy rock
2. it was leaned up against a trailer
3. The the arm shown in my 2 pair of images faces a different way than it would as most replacement parts are designed for the other way as far as i can tell

it was about 35-40 *F out at the time
 
What I'm seeing there is they are just standard frame rails and if I'm correct then you can find lots of them on amazon.
 
It should I think.
That's the beauty of this hobby, if it don't work, then you make it work.
With those frame rails it should.
 
alright then, probably, in a month or two, I will get the part and then I will reply to this thread, (best of luck)
 
Feel free to ask any question's. Somebody will have the answer and lots of suggestions.
