do you have the front upper deck on your Xmod?
 

I have the front upper deck on all my Xmods. I noticed that most people don't have them on.

Is there any reason to have it?

i just use the clear plastic thing that the whole front part was already conected to with the awd upgrade but i could see why people dont use any thing

i run both but i chopped them up. i choped all the front one but what braces the bulk heads and did lots of trimming on the rear, mainly the extra lip around the sides of the deck.

i have stainless steel decks from www.customxmodsparts.com

what? maybe a pic would help?

or puncuations?

lol

i striped out the holes for the longer screws so now i dont use the deck...

I still have mine but, only for a time... I'm getting the Deck upgrades from cXp when they come back outta the backorder situation... BTW cXp is www.customxmodsparts.com

i removed the deck from all my xmods.

I guess you could but it kinda looks tacky without it... Thats why I'm buying the ones from cXp...

I have mine on all my xmods because it helps hold the servo inplace or sumthing like that, but I do drill em and hack them up :)

how does your servo pop out of place i haven't had that problem and i took my front deck of the second i got my car. if it does pop out why don't you tape or glue it into place. is there a range problem if it pops out of place or what?

it dosnt do anything for the servo.

i took it out on one of my car because that was the only i could fit my small model engine. also i think that it just add weight but it dont do anything because it doesnt even weight an ounce. on my other 2 i left it on because if i take it out wat would i do with it.

I believe they brace the servo and keep the shock towers from caving in on one another... But, I'm not sure... That's just what it looks like it's there for...

Actually it does brace the servo, when i first got my xmod i took off the deck... when i was driving around i hit somethin pretty hard and then the steering was all funked up so i look at it and the servo was in a wierd angle i popped it back in place, put on the deck and havent had any problem again... it might be because it was an older model, but the deck is the only thing i could think of.
