Don't start showing me stuff like that.... I'll spend to many $'s

Hahaha, go on you know you want one   Trouble is i want one too.  I have some carbon fibre sheet so may cut one out and use a bearing with a small rubber or plastic wheel. 

The thing with those anti wheelie bars is that they are missing the importance of the 3rd spot to fix it. With a bigger motor, it tends to break the gearbox at the top of the wheelie bar; I would be ready to take one as long as it would include a way to additionally attach it to the screw which is slightly higher on the gearbox....

Looking for a better one

The orginal wheeliebar problem is not a lack of extra mounting point, but the problem is rather it is located not tight to the casing so it can pivot and damage the gearbox.
Carbon one in the link fixes that as the carbon plates sit tightly to the casing.

Currently I'm using the Traxxas Stampede wheeliebar which I have bolted to the stock mounting point and the one above using spacers.
So far that holds up fine.
I'm using M3 threaded pipes that clamps tightly to the casing via a long setscrew, and then the wheeliebar is bolted down using M3 bolts to the threaded pipes.
First I used hollow spacers and allthread with nuts at each end, but this was bending too much making stress on the casing which I did not like.

Benefit of the Traxxas one is that the tilt of the wheeliebar can be adjusted in 3 different positions.

I don't really need one as my Lunchbox doesn't wheelie since I put the 18t pinion in it. Might get it to lift a bit with brushless and a 2s lipo but not bothered much, I like it to just go when I hit the throttle. I would like a custom wheelie bar though   

I built one with meccano 😂. You could make sparkles with meccano and no wheele.

You could probably use a couple of adjustable arms/turnbuckles, that went from the higher screw on the gearbox to the top hole on the wheelie bar.

That Traxxas wheelie bar is a beast.

@SilverTriple  Just seen this pic on FB from Rcingabout Garage, looks like they have fitted a shock to the wheelie bar.

 

 

Interesting... a 6th shock mod
