Torsion rods on the bottom...that will never work now slam that servo and run it BTA buddy! Make sure the spreader in front of the trans is wider than the skid...just space it out depending on what spur you are running. The spreader will keep the spur from rubbing on the chassis if you do it right

How are you gonna make straight lowers b/c the chassis is your lower links? Hope that you meant that you were gonna make straight upper links.
