Reflex Body mounting system

After some time examining the best possible way of keeping an MR-02 body secure, we finally decided to release this mounting system. It is quite versatile and allows you to mount your body in different ways. We opted to release it with different length screws as a nut-and-bolt mechanism to keep bodies from popping off. You can keep the side clips or remove them- your call. Body height can be adjusted easily as well as replacing the screws with regular body posts in order to use body clips.

For now, here's some images




We don't claim it's rocket science, just a simple solution to a problem that was yet to be addressed out there. No more loosing races due to a body coming off. Anyone and everyone that has ever lost a body off his car needs one of these

I usually hate to put extra holes in my cars, but down at the Diablo I lost my body in the first turn of the stock A-main. I started the race 3/4 of a lap down and couldnt ever make it back up. Ill definatly be mimicking or buying one of these systems before the next event

Simple solution to a very real problem. No more electrical tape!!!!!! I like that you can use it to adjust the height of the dampener as well. I wonder if you could throw in another piece to go under it like the black plastic piece O___O that comes with the atomic dampner to add a little more height to if so desired. I guess I'll check the sight to see if they are for sale yet, maybe this will be the item that will put me over the $80.00 mark for free shipping!!!!!!

You can, but it makes it too tall... one thing that can be used is the atomic aluminum pre-load spacers for the AWD to adjust the height of the disk damper plate...
