Check TCS... I just built their Boulder chassis with an Axial RTC and used their boomerang on the rear and servo/4 link plate up front. Really nice products and awesome customer service. |

For the Price you cant beat TCS products, But Also the Bender Customs one from Axial is top notch and offers multiple mounting holes. |

Once you put your bent lower links on,use this link mount and use your straight lowers as uppers. Equal length triangulated links equals butter smooth suspension with almost zero axle steer. Running this mount,the pinion will be raised up just a touch to help with driveline angles. Having the long uppers will also keep your pinion from digging in the dirt on droop.

| my plates
if your feeling handy, there is a user on here, cant remember his name though, who designed a set as a pdf file, and all you have to do uis print them, and cut the alum your self. this is the route i went, and to save money on the links, teh adjustablr rear upper links from a rusrtler/stamp[ede work g9ood for the upper, and the 116 mm traxxas tierods work for the lowers perfect. ok here we go...... sorry about the size....tried to resize three times. So heres a link to the folder so you can see em in all their ghetto fabbed glory...lol my crawler Last edited by brilamb2; 10-01-2009 at 06:27 PM. Reason: post pics |

edit: you can also drill a couple of holes in the stock servo plate and mount the links underneath. Works well and doesn't cost anything. Last edited by Duuuuuuuude; 10-01-2009 at 06:44 PM. | |

This is the setup I am running, with my own mount though. It works very well. | |

| Cuz I'm retarded and clicked on the wrong picture I had on it's build file. Oh well, the short bus don't need a dig, it's got a good turning radius already. lol Apparently I've deleted the picture I was looking for as well. R2j's pic is correct tho, I have a similar one to the above mentioned "crooked" one that has mutiple mounting holes. (with out being crooked) |
