If I remember rightly the profiline kit doesn't come with the shackle mount parts that you need I used a tauch panzer as the donor vehicle which as you mentioned has them, I'm not sure if you could maybe just purchase a lower hull from one of these, thinking about it though I'm not sure if the mounts would come as part of the upper or lower hull I'll keep my eyes open and let you know if I come across one
Cheers,Lee.

Forgebear has the upper hull. Unless it’s an accessory, it’s not on the upper.

I’m using a Tauchpanzer upper for a base, and it did not come with the shackle mounts, looking online the accessory kits also don’t include them, looks like they come pre installed on RTR tanks, but $150 is pretty steep just for some shackle mounts.

How about $7.56... They are on this page item 3849-060: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001097 ... 1963%22%7D
I've ordered from them off AliExpress and although they aren't the fastest in the world, they do provide pretty much every part for any HL tank available. If I order from them I try to make the shipping worth while as those parts are like $2 with $5.56 shipping.

You are a life saver! Got them coming. Also reached out to Dave at Forgebear, he also has some on order for me, we will see which ones come first, in the meantime lots of sanding and fitting ahead.tankme wrote:How about $7.56...

That "Tank Zhang" company has every part from every HL tank as far as I've seen. I would guess that they are one of HL's suppliers of injected plastic parts.

They have listed the Leopard 2 remote weapons station for around $60USD that I have not seen anywhere else. A bit pricey compared to other Heng Long parts.
