We are about to modify the Traxxas shocks for rod ends on the caps.

How you going to decide on a suspension set up? Past experiences?

I think we will get the supension pretty close on the first shot but it might need a little tuning after. I have ran a similarly setup sportsman before so I have a decent idea how it will do.

Decided to modify some Fastlane Machine links for the rear. Drilled out to 8-32 and Revo ends bolted up. Ended up not working....

Redoing the rear links now...

I do! It's hard to resist the urge to run them but I have to make the tough call in the name of performance.

OK, rear suspension is done. Need to make the front uppers and then that will wrap up the roller. Electronics will follow that.

For the steering we decided to throw on some Wraith steer arms for tonight. We WILL be running the tie rod behind the axle but right now we need to get this damn thing done!
