Who makes Heavy duty body clips?

[jkoppk]

I have a Stampede and go through loads of body clips.Every time it cartwheels or flips the clips bend up and are useless,or they pop off and are lost.I tried ordering a few sets from tower hobbies but the pictures are misleading.They looked heavy duty but when I got them they were cheaper than the stock clips.What kind do you guys use?

i bought a 100 clip which are heavy duty big strong clips and i have many so its no problem if i loose them but they hardly come out. the only down side was that it didnt fit in the stock hols on the posts. but 2 secs wit hteh dremel and i widened them jsut enough. ive rolled crashed flipped you name it and i did it and they never came off. chekc out ebay. it was like $10 or so

here is the link these are the ones i got or do a search of body clips.

Thry your lhs (local hardware store) look for cotter pins, I found a pull out shelf at home depot that had all sorts of body clip sized cotter pins, the ones that go through two, even the locking ones, and they were all like a dime a piece;) .

I bought these body clips at my LHS that are used for enduro nitro racing they are locking, their a buck 89 at towerhobbies(i would ask at you LHS though at tower your going to pay shipping to)for four but d@mn how often do we spend 50 cents for 8 regulers? i know I buy body clips at least every two weeks! right up till I bought these, man they won't come off in a crash but yet they still come off in a hurry for those quick pits! the brand name is BRP LOCKING BODY CLIPS. Or TEAM ORION OR PEAK PERFORMANCE LOCKING BODY CLIPS TO (THERE ONE CENT MORE BUT HEY YOU GET 6 OF 'EM:D
