Default My AX10 setup, and i have questions

[IMG]file:///C:/Users/Brian/Desktop/new%20crawler/CIMG0093.jpg[/IMG]Hey everyone Im kinda new to the whole rc crawler thing. i have an AX10 with aluminum axles, proline 2.2 titus, flatirons, novak rooster esc and 55T, thunder tech driveshafts, TCS edge chassis Gmade shocks. I also have 4 link plates, but i am not sure how to set them up. its got 4WS, stock transmission with steel outdrives, and im running a spektrum dx5.
Im wondering how to set up my 4 link. also i just put the prolines on today. they came with memory foam i wasnt sure if i was supposed to cut that type of foam down or not so i didnt, the tires seem ok but im wondering if i should trim it a little. any help would be appreciated.
Brian

And go.....

My setup as follows:

Bent lowers

Shocks: Frame side on outer most hole on the outside. Axle on the outside of the tabs (closest to tire). droop setup with body on the axle side.

Lowers: F/R: frame side-outer most hole on inside of frame (cut trans plate. Axle side - on the inside tab closest to pinion.

uppers: front - frame side - Inner most hole to top of 4-link plate on axle.
uppers: rear - Frame side - center hole to top of 4-link plate on axle.

my belly height is 2 7/8" with rovers.

a lot of people dont like the droop setup but i think it is because they have to make them work by trying different setups. mine seems to work in my location (desert/mountain) but i am always changing things.

Even though i hope this will help, you will need to tweak it to your location

Oh yea, Hammers were smaller so my belly height was about 2 1/4" and the foams were fine without cutting them. (that makes them smaller too)

If you're going to comp, I'd ditch the aluminum axles, the short FI's, and the rear steer (not legal!). Otherwise it sounds like you've got a good start.
