| Which Chassis?
I have looked around and i am thinking about getting the black widow chassis. it looks like it would work well with a normal shock setup as i am not interested in running a droop setup. My ax-10 is basically stock but i plan on running a 4 link setup when i get a new chassis. Would this be a good choice or is there a better one? Thanks

| Use the straight links it comes with, your bent links off of your stock chassis will be too long, the base of the SWX chassis is longer and narrower the the stock chassis. acouple of other options for you would be a GC-2 or Mayhems new chassis the LS 2.0, they wouls both work with stock shocks.

The MFM chassis is nice. I have one. But with it, or most other aftermarket chassis... they are designed for shorter shocks. (stock shocks won't work). Make sure you find out before you order whatever you end up wanting, but with the widow chassis for sure... stock shocks will only work drooped out. To run sprung, its 4" or shorter. |

If I was gonna build another Axial,it'd get an SWX. Either 4" Losi shocks or the new Axial shock,they look pretty slick. |
