well I made some links today at work on the lathe. I.m glad the jaws went down that small. I am really happy with them. I only had time to make the straight front ones now i have to make the 30* rears next!

My Delrin Links: the new version does not have the holes for strength





These work great and clear even the large diameter Revo Shocks!!
Where can I get these? How much? And is it possible to get them with the holes?

use steel rods and die the ends to screw into your rod end. they are strong, abrasion resistant, bendable, and cheap

PM me with your lengths, it will depend.

$15 for set of 2 without studs and rod ends
$20 for set of 2 with 3mm studs and revo rod ends

$25 for set of 4 without studs and rod ends
$30 for set of 4 with 3mm studs and revo rod ends

Shipping is $4.50 to lower 48


NOTE: I am not doing the holes anymore as testing has proven that to be the weak spot in this design. Other than the hole issue they have proven very durable!!!
