Hey everyone I recently received a 5 inch wildman punisher I bought a couple weeks ago and it was a bit of a special order. They didn't have the stock 60 inch booster tube in stock so they offered to send a 18inch lower booster tube section (left in the photo) and a upper 42 inch section (right in the photo) with a coupler to bond them together. (Middle). The problem with this is that the top centering ring on the motor sits with only about a 3 inch gap between it and the middle centering ring. This meant that I only had about 3 inches of area to glue the shock cord harness to the motor tube. At the time it would have been smart just to bring the shock cord through the middle centering ring as well but for some reason that slipped my mind. Im doubting the strength of this attachment and was thinking about maybe putting a strip of fiberglass around the tube at that point to make the shock cord sort of one with the tube but haven't tried that yet. If anyone has any tips or anything that might help please leave a comment. I'll be posting more build photos and updates of this project. Thanks!
