Yeah one of mine busted off right before a troop and I'm looking for a way to avoid that in the future. I love this organization and that the standards are high but sometimes it gets annoying when we have to spend our money and time on costumes that were designed for movie shots and not long troops. Just looking for ways to keep trooping. Right now I am out of commission until I get replacement straps in and get them on. Guess there are no other options.

Not sure if this is the place to put this post but I'm looking for TK shoulder straps and remember seeing a post about rubber ones. Does anyone know where to find these and if they are worth buying? Thanks Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

apparently I am still in a pending status. https://www.501st.com/members/displaymemberdetails.php?userID=26333

That's the problem I pulled both the ab and back down as far as possible and I get a gap on either side depending how I'm pulling. If the weather holds up I will be attending an armor party this weekend. I will get some other opinions before I dive in. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

The gaps are similar but I don't see an easy place to cut in the back. The belt can only hide so much. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

well this is definitely not going to be as easy as I thought

Can you please clarify. Red line to red line? The length of each red line? What brand armor? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

That's the plan to cut the ab and put in some abs under the belt but I was hoping there was an easy way to fasten it and not have to do the back too. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

The gap in the back is smaller Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I assume about an inch

I have to make these two parts and essentially make it taller

So I have to put a shim to split my abs and may them taller. Anyone know of a tutorial or thread that may save me from mistakes?

This sounds consistent to what I have been hearing. I just can't seem to get any info or contact from RT Mod. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Thanks. I was also told AP could fit someone 6'2" but apparently I must have a long torso because the gap between my chest and ab was too big and would shift to the back and/or neck when I pulled it down. I have been trying to reach RT Mod and have no success. I was looking for replacement parts but now I am willing to buy a whole set if I can find out how much it costs and where to send the money. We clearly need more armor vendors.... Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

Where did you find the contact info and prices? I didn't see that in the link above. Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I will be watching this one as I have had the same experience.

My chest and back...I've decided I may just want a whole new set but can't figure out how to get any details and pricing for the rt mod set. How do I get this info so I can get on some list wherever that may be too.... Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

I had conversation with rtmodpanda@gmail.com who copied the email listed above in July (16-18). Then I think it was just with rtmodpanda@gmail.com after that. July 20, Aug 24, Sep 30....all no response. Are these two emails not connected? Please just get me in the right direction so I can get the proper information and possibly get on the right list if parts are not available. I have a feeling a new set is probably the route I will take anyway. Thanks For all your feedback guys. Just frustrated here, Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

I own a different set of armor that just doesn't fit my body right so I need bigger. I was looking for Replacements but now I've considered just getting a whole new set and this is one of the recommended sets. how do I find the information. I looked in the past comments and the website listed doesn't give me a valid link? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

No I'm pretty sure I'm not on the list I was contacting for replacement parts and then said I would probably just get the whole thing since that was challenged to get anyone to reply now I need to figure out how to get these parts or I get on some list from whole new set of armor. It's been almost a year since I've owned my armor that is not yet approved because a few parts are too small and you know how frustrating it can get. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

I thought there was a separate list because I already contacted that email and don't seem to get very much reply so how do I know if I'm even on the list Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Where is this RT-mod list? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk

Yeah sorry didn't mean to misquote the sizing and I have no complaints about the armor. The armor is awesome, its my body that needs work. I don't have very much room to move the on the back and front plates. I will just have to try to make a loner elastic piece and look into the shim idea.

So I have to completely redo the elastic and snaps. Went to a local craft store and they don't have the correct stuff. Anyone know where to get the right elastic and snaps? Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk
