Default my ax10 brand new to crawling

i recently finished my ax10 scorpion and im brand new to crawling, i look forward to upgrading as i go with this truck.
ckrc stage 2 suspension kit
split 6 cell 1600mah over front axel on plexiglass plates
hs-645mg servo
rooster cralwer esc
integy 65 turn motor
sr3000 receiver
durango body
i stripped all the links and wheels, sanded and hand polished them
and then not in the pictures i just got hot racing bent links and a hot racing aluminum bottom plate.
and on the aluminum chassis bottom plate i have some thin teflon self adhesive stuff that im going to stick on so it slides easier.

when i put it any lower it rubs a lot more, i want to find a better body like one of the bug bodies. but this one will have to do for now

i agree, it looks good dude. my body rubs too so its pretty high also.

thats my plan too is to get more of a crawler style body rather than trying to make my ax10 scale looking.

hey great rig........i would keep the ckrc stage 2 but move the rear links back out to the stock location on the rear axle it will work really good and eliminate most of the axle steer did this with mine and moved the tri link mounting point up to get some preload on the rear driveline.....like this pic:



i dont have any pics of the link mounting....

thanks for the great tips and comments, and i know what you mean by moving the lower links back to the original position, i will have to give that a try.
