Looks great! I really like how you did the axle mounts. I may have to borrow that idea ;)

Looks great. The shock mounts are a good idea. I built one of these a while back ago and sold it. here is how it came out.

Just a little test vid with the stock ESC/Receiver. I pieced it together plug and play style to get a feel for how the suspension is working. I got the rear tires to touch the wall without it flipping over. I'm thinking this thing will have have potential when I have time to tune it more and install the new motor/esc and a spectrum. I'm going with the Nomadio React system cause I already have a few Spectrum Receivers laying around.

I plan to do the same with my wheely king axles. Where can I buy those axle link mounts? "thumbsup"

Great to see this build!

Here you go http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&W=001388981&I=LXGKG9&P=K. They are the bottom ones, and it looks like he bent them. I did something similar with those too.
