The F4 and FF4 chassis are nice chassis. Very capable and strong. I havent owned either but I have a buddy who owns Gunners old FF4 and loves it. I used to run a TAG chassis (contact THE EYE if interested) and it worked well for me. I have also ran and loved my old SWX. The SWX comes with EVERYTHING you need to convert your AX10 chassis to an SWX. Chassis plates, links, stays, skid and hardware. The main benifit is you are shortening up ur lower links and narrowing the chassis. Helps with link geometry and belly clearance. Worked GREAT for me.
I say get the SWX, DNA (billet work designs) front and rear 4 link plates, some axial alum or losi comp shocks and run it. Change tires too if you havent already. From stock to rover or sedona is a night and day difference. Then after the stockers break et the alum axle upgrades.

VERY nice chassis as well but 2 times the cost of a good SWX.

This chassis is the best $ can buy. It comes with chassis plates, upper and lower links, front and rear 4 link mounts, skid plate, and all the required hardware.

This looks like a good deal...

U would still need 2 packs of revo rod ends. Might want to call and make sure it's still in stock. As far as the moon buggy goes, your lead time might be a bit... I never thought I'd say this, but it is worth the wait

Someone put a frogger cab on a sling shot, and it looks bad ass! Hey 10 more post & u may also check out the for sale section too

Really there's ALOT of bad ass chassis to choose from. Good luck.

X2, bolts right in without having to make or modify your links, and you can't beat the price!
