Default The Woodchuck

Well since i don't have any rocks at my place to crawl over, i named my scorpion the woodchuck because it gets to play on the large woodpile I have in back. So here are a couple action shots, and a few body off shots so everyone can see a few of the changes I am trying out, to see if I like it or not running a droop setup.

Links moved inside chassis plates
4 Link rear
Bent rear links
Droop setup with big bores, internal springs, axial shock shafts and relocation brackets
7 cell 2/3A pack on front axle

why did you mount your shocks like that? How do you like that servo, does it have enough power?

This may be a noob question but, i thought the top links get mounted under the plate and not on top. How does that work for you?

Actully your better off turning those shock mounts that you made up 45 degrees. The more upright your shocks are the better they perform.

The brackets were made to get the shorter shocks to let the chassis sit where I wanted it.

Justgowinslow, thanks for the advice, ill try and make some new brackets up.

looks good, but I think your shock angle is terrible.What is your Wheel base?? To rise my truck up a little I just drilled new holes in the Chassis.
