received in great time, was very satisfied with the fast shipping. The stinger on the bumper was bent upward so it slanted into my trucks hood instead of away. I figured for less than $20 not top bad. Within 20 minutes of my first run climbing up a rock pile, the first small bump snapped the stinger right off. The stinger was not properly welded on, it looks like it was temporarily tacked on and they forgot to weld it or it was rushed. either way the outcome is the same, broken and unable to be fixed as I don't have a welder. It was highly recommend by others that I crawl with but I was beyond dissapointed with the quality. Unfortunately "buy cheap, but twice" applies to this product. It's possible I just got a bad one, idk.
In the compatibility tab, it says this bumper is “compatible” with the SCX10II This bumper is far too wide to bolt to the frame rails without the use of super long screws and spacers. Clearly not designed for, or compatible with the 10II. Decided to return for a refund
The bumper I received had sharp edges that got hung up on everything. The stinger wasn’t centered on the bumper mount. It stuck out almost two inches past the stock bumper mount and ruined the approach angle. I spent some time modifying with a grinder but was unable to fashion a useable bumper. .
All three reviewers rate this bumper 1/5 and report quality or fit problems. Two verified owners describe a stinger that arrived bent upward or off-center, with one reporting it snapped off after a small impact on the trail due to apparently weak welding. Another owner reports sharp edges that snagged on terrain and a stinger protruding about two inches past the stock mount, hurting approach angle; grinding modifications did not produce a usable result. A third reviewer, not marked as verified, says the bumper is too wide to bolt to SCX10 II frame rails without long screws and spacers despite the compatibility listing, and returned it for a refund. Reviews consistently describe the product as unsuitable, though the set is small and mostly concerns the SCX10 variant in general.
