Yeah man run some shorter shocks. But the stance looks good with the body on!  |

Looks like a cool chassis for sure, but like the others said, just lower the the COG a bit and maybe raise the body up so that you get that stance back because it looks good! it will crawl alot better that way. I like the RTI ramp out of wood too  simple yet very effective -Mike |

That's the chassis that I offer. 2fknqwk was actually the first to buy one of the new chassis's. They sell for $70.00 shipped. 2fknqwk - Very nice build. I like the use of the TLT-1 shocks. Keep us all posted. | |

Careful cutting the springs thomas, you will add some slop to the suspension and it may be unstable. Maybe make some shock mounts that stick above the chassis so you can lower the center that way but still have the same amount of upwards travel with the shocks?
