3D model description

Team Associated B74.2 Front Shock Protector. I couldn't find any prints for the latest version of the B74 and there seems to be no official or aftermarket item available here in the U.K. After trying various single shock protectors; I found they all make the shock bind up.

So ended up making this. I've only used Creality PLA+ and so far and I've had no snapping or breakages over 4 nights at my local carpet track; ideally TPU for flexibility or maybe ABS for strength?

I've included two STL files, one with centre support and one without, I've personally found running it with the centre support helps rigidity.

You can still use the original mounting screws, but make sure you put a dab of thread lock on it, or try to source some 2mm longer screws.

Any feedback welcome, as this is my first time creating an model and publishing it.

UPDATE 2: Centred the support bracket as it was slightly off centre

UPDATE 1: Added 2 more variants with 1mm thinner back panel to allow more thread from the original m3 bolts to be used.
