Do they make a wheelie bar for a ruckus Monster truck. Or how can i install one on mines
 
What kind of modification need to be done do you have any pictures of how you did it?
I bought some tiny nylon washer nuts and bolts and took part of the wheelie bar off entirely. If you get the wheelie bar and look at the pictures, you'll see what I did. I think I had to cut part of it. And you have to remove the rear bumper, obviously.

I have a low visibility wheelie bar from rpm and was wondering if anyone has tried to install on of these on a 2wd ruckus MT ? Ive seen the traxxas wheelie bar instalation ans was wondering if would be the samething
 
So u just installed the wheelie bar only right? No other kinds of mounting kits or parts from traxxas thanks
I just installed the wheelie bar, not other kinds of mounting kits needed in my case other than the screws and nuts from the local hardware store. But I do remember removing part of the stock Traxxas wheelie bar to mount it. The prongs that come off the back that are supposed to mount it to the vehicle were removed in order to attach it to the Ruckus. If you look at a picture of the part on a website you'll see the prongs.

The only problem I've had is the support arm coming undone while bashing. Its not broke, it just snaps into place so if it lands hard it will come unsnapped. I should secure it better but haven't yet. I just snap it back together.

Any idea what part number it is ? I heard there are different versions one with small and one with big wheels
 
Its Traxxas 3678...I picked one up off ebay for $11. No idea why ECX doesn't just make one that fits.
i just ordered one today! And im not sure why they stopped making one too. I did find some off the wall brand from china that look like a copy of rpm's parts

ECX and RPM "used" to make wheelie bars for an assortment of ECX cars, they dont any more. You replied to a thread that the last post was made in 2018.
I have heard Traxxas may have wheelie bars that will fit with some modifications.
