Running board problems

[Ryan Verrecchia]

So im looking to put skinz airframes on but got this problem what should I do.

To me that looks like the front running board support that goes from the running board over your foot to the tunnel. Some tubular running boards include that piece welded onto it as one solid running board. Look into other brands to find one that includes it.

I don't think that anyone's boards would include that piece. The piece that is broken is actually part of the back half of your overstructure. The only real way I think to fix it would be either replace the back half at $330.00 USD, or to remove the back half and bring it to someone good at tig welding. I think you are about the 3rd guy I have seen this season with the same issue and I have never heard of any other solution. I run CR racing tunnels and boards on both of my pros and can tell you that the piece in question is definatly not included with any boards I have seen and or run. Hope this helps....

I see now that the toe hook doesn't come off of the running boards on those sleds. Here's the toe hook i was talking about on the airframe style running boards.

What chassis are those boards off of? Maybe a guy could fab something similar onto the pros with just knocking the toe supports/hoops off and then just drill a few new holes.

I believe it came off of a nytro chassis.

Thanks guys im looking for boards like that or something but still no luck. Don't want to buy a new over structure cost too much. Would like to just replace the running boards. Sled will be a spare picking up an axis so spending $1000 for that and boards is a little much. It was half ass welded held up a bit but broke by the weld. Stupid invention this is.

I have the rear over structure pieces, both sides. It's a fairly easy swap out. Shoot me a P.M if your interested and we will see if we can work something out.
