The Orange is the V1W M2 changes to further add compatibility for the Element Enduro Series, Skid, Axles, Shocks and sideboards. The M2 also includes an updated servo mount (allowing use of the AE Aluminum PanHard mount), Modified Pan-Hard Mount for easier Element Adaptation, Modified Hoop Backer with included Body Mount, Symmetrical long sliders, Simple rear Shock tower brace, Chassis and Axle side shock spacers (requires m3x25), and Incognito mounts for the 70mm and 78mm width for use with AE body posts.

UPDATE (29 APR 2020): The first batch of V1W Chassis are all gone! Thank you all for your enthusiasm and feedback on the V1W Chassis.

Mod 1 will undergo a few modification based on your feedback. The revision will be dubbed "V1W M1". 90% of the current printed parts will fit the V1W M1. The printed rear shock hoops are no longer needed unless you cut off the the rear hoop. Also the Optimus body mount Is not needed with the new version.

The two new key features are the integrated rear shock hoops and the added body mounting location for the JC Creep body. The front body mounts maintain the exact position of the printed mount so you don't have to put new holes in your Creep body with the Optimus 3. Lastly, the tapped holes on the front of the chassis proved to be problematic and were changed to pass through holes.

______________________

Introducing the latest Chassis specifically designed with the builder in mind and that box full of spare parts you have laying around just itching to be used. The Chassis is designed around a 78mm inside rail to rail spacing. This allows the widest possible use of parts from popular brands like Axial, Traxxas, and Vaterra. Many other brands may fit but the parts have not been specifically tested.

Adjustability is the key. You will note there are a large variety of holes on the skid and front/rear of the Chassis. These spacing for all of these will directly match up to stock skids, bumpers, bumper mounts and even servo mount(with a little creativity). I've used parts from an Axial Capra, Axial SCX-10 & 10.2, Vaterra Ascender, and Traxxas TRX-4 to map many possible combinations. Some parts will require inside the rail chassis spacers to achieve attachment at the 78mm spacing.

This particular design allows a great building platform for a class 2 or 3 trail rig. The chassis is cut from 6061 Aluminum and weighs just 3.6oz.

I have built this chassis for a standard 12.5in wheelbase but can be customized to shorter or longer wheelbase depending on how you build your truck.

THIS CHASSIS IS NOT A DIRECT BOLT ON FOR ANY PARTICULAR KIT.
This is a builders chassis, expect to fabricate parts, adjust/make links, or trim parts to achieve the desired build.

Decent shelf but could be improved upon
Color: White, Size: 31.5"L x 8"D, Set of 2
Not bad but could be a little more sturdy. We used longer and a little larger screws to try to make it better and that did help but it still has a little wobble in it. It will serve the purpose for me in my bathroom. They look nice except it would be nice if they would include some of those little covers to go over the screws in the bottom of the shelf so you wouldn’t see them. They really show up on the white shelves.

Really Nice Shelves BUT....
Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 36"L x 8"D, Set of 2, Color: Rustic Brown, Size: 36"L x 8"D, Set of 2
I do like these shelves, they look great for cheaper low end particle board made to look like wood. However I took off stars because they made installation unnecessarily hard. I'll explain.... If you look in my picture the mounting bracket has plenty of options/slots to use. AND in the instructions they clearly show you how to find studs to properly mount the brackets. Meaning the manufacturer know stud distance. They even show in the instructions that studs are clesrly 16" apart! Now get this, the mounting brackets are plenty long enough (roughly 22" without measuring) to mount on two studs 16" apart so the shelves are mounted in wood which is stronger and superior mounting instead of drywall. HOWEVER, THE SLOTTED HOLES ON THE MOUNTING BRACKET ARE NOT 16" APART. None of them. There's tons of slotted holes to use on the bracket and zero of them are 16" apart. Now if I want to mount screws jn 2 studs I have to drill in the mounting bracket to make a new hole. Taking up extra time, messing with the integrity of the mounting steel. I don't understand. It's almost like they did this on purpose. What should have been a 10-15 minute install turned into getting proper drill bits, drilling metal, and taking 45-50 minutes to do it properly. It just put a sour taste in my mouth and that is my reasoning for the 3 of 5 starts. I would make it 3.5 stars if it was an option. Otherwise the shelves look pretty decent for low end shelving. I recommend them only if you're handy with a drill and tape measure. If you can handle drilling the mount bracket to go into a stud, go ahead and grab these.
