Default lower link question

I see alot of different lower links (control arm) offered for the ax-10. Being new to this sport Im just wondering what everyone uses? I have seen them as long as 179 mm. I figure longer is better, just want to make sure before I buy them. Thanks

To stay within the "Comp" WB limit I would use links no longer than the stock ones...believe the high clearance ones are 101mm long.

To be legal 2.2 class your wheel base, wheel stub to wheel stub must not be greater than 12.5 inches so get links to stay within that measurement.

Even if you're not comping, I wouldn't go with the "Longer is better" theory, In fact it seems these rigs do better if you keep them under 13 inches WB. Get some bent arms from TCS or STRC in a normal length, I think you'll be pleased with the results.
