Default BMAX 4III rear facing roll bar mod...parts?

Hi all...

My Bmax4III has the rear facing roll bar mod as seen here:

http://eos.redrc.net/wp-content/uplo...02/Ada_CF3.jpg

BUT...currently mine isn't nicely mounted as in this pic, it's under two washers on the two rear bulkhead screws, and moves from left to right, occasionally popping off at the wishbone.

SO....what part (the two small black brackets that the bar runs through) is being used to 'properly' mount the roll bar to the top of the bulkhead in that photo?

Thanks

Looks like the Yokomo BD-7 sway bar mounts.

I'm mounting it like the kit with the 2.0 sway though I've never had issues. There is no play due to the thickness...

I'm using the yz2 rear so maybe I'll see tonight...

When you say mounted like the kit, you mean at rear pointing forward?

I've got the YZ2 rear arms but bought car second hand and have left roll bar facing rear as per the pic...never occurred to me it might fit the standard way!

Why/what was the reason for team drivers reverse mounting?

Less friction on the rollbar and easier to change. The 'part' you are looking for is in B7-204.

I'm thinking maybe the yz2 conversion isn't for me. Due to the greater turn in I think I'm struggling to square up for our triple jump as the run up is quite short. Our triple jump has high room for error and this made it extra tricky...
