Shock guards?

[freedomchariot]

Hey all! I just wanted to get some feedback on something I have been working on. It is a guard to protect the drivers side shock mount, and shock end.

I am currently 3D printing them out of TPU, which gives good impact resistance and ease of installation.

I have been running one for 5 months now with no issues and I have had some others do testing for me with little to no wear on the product.

you can pull it back and clean if you live in an area where you might have corrosion issues, and come off and on easily.

any feedback would be super helpful.
Thank you

How does it mount and will you be selling them for what?

It mount on the top, bottom and in the oval section. I guess I should have said that. I am selling them at 39.99 right now with free shipping.

great idea. I used some rubber on the towers, but eventually added mid flaps mounted at the rear running board mount and inboard to the frame. They create lots of noise when on the gas, from all the spray / roost coming off the front tires when running in Baja mode.

Thanks man! I thought about the mid flap too, but it was a lot, and was worried about ripping it off when I was crawling.
