RC10L2.5 Rear Pod

As you can see I'm still burning my time on this RC10L2.5 pod. I think I have enough parts back-loaded to get a better idea at what I striving for.

With this snapshot in wireframe, you can see the purposed location of the right and left dampers as they are installed.

You might want to change the design so the side dampers attach to the underside of the top pod plate, especially if you plan to use a modern Pro10 body. Some bodies are so low at that location that the side-dampers may rub the body.

At least, that's the problem I have on my Trinity EV10.

Correct, I've had the same problem with some of the newer bodies. The newer pan cars run the damper tubes instead of the old school shocks, they usually mount underneath the top plate, with my design it will work either way.

Thanks for your input...
