vanquish chassie is only 60$ and is worth it and you can use your stock links just use the spacers that are on the stock chassie with your upper links and it will work

I would look at the Axial BTA setup. I just put one on my rig and it is a great improvement over the stock. Now I have my lipos on the front plate instead on top of the upper links. I also have the Axial CVD's. Also look at MIP's driveshafts. Bulletproof. The only thing I need to do is get new shocks.

I just picked up a DX3E for my axial and it made a hell of a difference.. Upgrading to a 2.4 ghz reciever gives your motor sooooo much more snap and same with your steering servo, So if it were me i would look into a better Tx/Rx

One thing that would really help u out right now is to switch out the knuckles on ur front axle and ur back depending on how you built it so your two front steering links are parallel thus giving you much more clearance and steering precision. Just check out your instructions

So I think that I am going to get the Vanquish chassis with the Axial shocks. I will go with the LD Racing BTA, for the price I don't think it can be beat plus I will be able to 4 link the front. Are all knuckles equal when it comes to strength and performance (ex. axial vs. any aluminum knuckles) Should I do the C's at the same time or should I wait till they break? Are there any other suggestions ex. changing the lengths of any of the links ect... Thanks a ton for all the good information. |

Another thing you might want to thing about is a triangulating skid plate. Takes your lower links from being outboard to inboard. Also get a set of cvd's, they will help with a better turning radius.
