SCX10 2 Axial Cherokee inner wheel wells

thingiverse

Axial SCX10 2 Cherokee inner wheel wells to stop mud getting into the bodyshell. I have made them with PLA but a flexible material would be better, especially if you could change material and print the back support out of PLA or ABS and have flexible for the rest. Tyre clearance is OK at full depression, I have Hyrax 1.9s on. Obviously doesn't stop everything if going through muddy water but cuts down probably 80% from getting on to your electrics etc. Drier mud doesn't get past them. Not tried with real sticky clay so don't know whether it would bind up in there. They certainly cut down the cleanup operation after a run, 5 mins as opposed to about an hour. Tested and they didn't break, no real stress on them. Maybe a branch getting caught up in there might break them, if so would try PETG or ABS. No supports needed. The fronts use existing bolts and clip to the undertray, the rears use one existing bolt and a new M3 bolt and locknut into an existing hole in the rail. UPDATE 31/12. Redesigned a few bits, added strengthening to parts that broke under extreme testing and redesigned to give better cover. New pictures for the .final versions. Also added top supports which go over the body posts. Just drill a 2.5mm hole through into the top of the fender and screw an M3 caphead. They also give the posts a bit of support.
