Default fastback II build question

So im building a fastback 2 and I was wondering what people were running for a rear 4-link besides the underground crawlers D mount.

The largest benefit is having the axle side and chassis side ball ends on the same plane so both are on their natural plane of movement.

Insane adjust-ability is another.


Those were the only two reasons I needed

chud keep us posted. I'll be watching daily for these and the chassis.

I wanna run the axial BTA kit for the front. Is it easier to drill the axial plate for a 4 link setup or does someone else make a better kit that works with the fastback II?

CHUD should sell a D link with threaded holes that is JUST wide enough to fit around a standard servo body! With folded tabs on the front for the servo to mount to, yum!

I've been running this on mine and really like it. It allows vertical adjustment as well as width. You adjust width by spacing the links and using a different length bolt. This one was cobbled together real quick during lunch, but I'd like to make a nicer version:

GET TO COBBELING! That would be a really nice piece to have in the front.
