Any color you want as long as it's Blue.

It would look much better with some panels on it. Get some or make some mounting plates for your 3 link and mount your elecronics there, and once you get your panels you can also mount it to the inside of the panels like mine You can also put the battery over the front axle or front 3 link. Some saddle packs or a 2s lipo will fit. The edge is already top heavy so you want everything as low as you can get it.

EDIT** here is a link to my thread to give you a better idea Grim's Edge Tuber

I got a set of those off Ebay for a couple bucks less last week, bolted right up, works great. Color isn't my favorite, but screw it, it'll be scraped up silver soon enough.

Got a saddle pack and some Losi 4" shocks! I put my comp claws on it and it is sitting lower now, almost have the 3 link parallel to the ground! I will get some new pics posted up soon. Next on the list is a 4 link front and rear, but that might have to wait until after the new year .

Very nice. The shorter shocks most definately will help. A four link system would definately help too but from my own experiences I think a behind the axle steer package might be a better option to start with. While the four link helps articulation I am constantly getting hung up on my steering links.

Well looks like christmas came early for me!!! I got a 4 link setup front and rear! Haven't had a chance to test it out yet but i am planning on a run tomorrow. One question I have thou, is it normal for the front right tire to come off the ground when I go from reverse to foward without stopping? I was thinking that was the torque twist kicking in. I have the 4 link setup to help with the twist according to TCS. The tire doesn't come off the ground from a stand still. Tomorrow I will get to test it out on a climb that was a beast last time because of the twisting. Truck kept rolling over! Hopefully the 4 link will fix it.

I call that a "cheated case of torque twist." Trick is to make an "incline" ramp and see how well it can make it up and at what point it starts to twist and see if you can't dial it out more. I say 4-link is light years ahead of 3-link for sure and should help torque twisting a ton
