Default Suspension Trouble

I am tired of screwing with the 3 link on my ax10 rtr. And i have seen on here where yall have converted them over to a 4 link set up. I was wondering what kinda parts list will i need to get it converted. Also i have seen people using the axial rods for the upper links. What kinda length do i need on those? Also where can i get like a complete screw box that will have all of those misc. screws that are on my ax10. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

TCS Aluminum Boomerang Upper Link Mount



You need nothing else. It uses links from the AX10, and supplies you with the rest of the hardware.

There's one for the front too.

Cool
But mine is a rtr version that comes with a all plastic upper 3 link. Do you have any idea on the length of the upper links on the kit ax10. Also what about 4 linking the front?

Ooooohhhhhh.

AXA1319 - 7x55mm Post

AXA186 - M3x16mm Set Screw

AXA80005 Rod End

AXA1331 Flanged Ball

Then it uses an extra rod end from a parts tree, and I don't know specifically which ones, but I'll just guess they're on the same tree as the ones above. That's just a guess though.

I just upgraded my RTR to a 4-link front and rear. It so nice to finally get rid of the last plastic suspension piece on my truck. There is a night and day difference!

Im just double checking EeePeee or anyone else, 4 Axial Post 7x55mm Green, 2 sets of Axial Flanged Ball 3x5.8x7mm, 1 set of Axial Set Screw M3x16mm Black Oxide and 1 set of Axial Linkage Set and 2 TCS Aluminum Boomerang Upper Link Mount.

Is all that correct?

honestly by the time your done buying all those parts it will be kinda expensive case you'll need
2x http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXSAX2&P=Z so like 13.00$
2x http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXSAX3&P=Z cause you need 8 and it comes with 6 another 10.00
1x http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXSYP6&P=M 5.00
2x http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXSAT0&P=Z its short 2 link ends so there's another 12.40
that all together is like 40 dollars, and then you still have the stock lower links.
i say your best bet is a set of premade derlin high clearance links uppers and lowers
http://xtreme-rc-hobbies.net/store/p...products_id=75 for 35.00 dollars and you're set.
and ask if he could put 4 extra link ends on them because its made for the 3 link so it doesn't come with them.

On the rear axle plate mount one link on top and the other on the bottom and it will take out 99% of axle roll. At least it did on mine.
