This stainless steel wheelie bar is an aftermarket replacement tailored to fit ARRMA 1/16 MINI KRATON 3S frames, offering solid rear support to control wheelstands and resist impact. The component is CNC machined at a nominal 1mm thickness to maintain stiffness without adding unnecessary mass, and the pre-installed bearing wheels rotate under load to reduce debris intrusion into the chassis area.
Installation typically requires basic removal of the rear bumper area. The bar locates into the chassis cavity with a tight footprint to minimise slop, and the supplied black Grade 12.9 screws are for metal-to-metal fixation. Use medium-strength thread-lock on screws that cut into metal, and consider a removable thread adhesive on screws that pass through into the bar so future servicing is simple.
Service needs are light: clean the bearing wheels occasionally and recheck screw torque after early runs. Bearings arrive sealed but inspect after sandy or muddy use and service or swap them if rotation becomes gritty.
For MINI KRATON 3S owners wanting a durable rear brace to tame wheelies and add bumper protection, this CNC-cut stainless wheelie bar is a direct-fit, maintainable upgrade that suits regular upkeep.
