I wanna upgrade my link bars!!

[Klutch]

So I've been playing with my scx-10 and I wanna do some upgrading. I wanna upgrade my 4 link bars and my steering links. Also can I put a 4 link on the front? Links would be awesome.
Also what r some good drive shafts?

Thx for any info!!

Traxxas Revo rod ends, 8-32 all thread and 3/8" (I think, I used 1/4") brake line for the links.

MIP driveshafts seem to be a good item,lots of people here using them.

For 4 links or steering or both?

Those are built to length so you just build whatever you need.

You can also contact R2j in the vendor section - he makes custom stainless links and 4-link trusses.

Mip shafts are great, I've also heard others have great success with "maxx shafts made easy." Cheaper but it involves a bit of work on your part.

I kind of wanna just bolt it up. I work 7 days a week honestly I don't have time to tinker with the truck lol. I would rather buy what I need and just have to bolt it up. It's sad I know....

Check ebay! Theres always guys selling the axial link kits on there.

On the drive shafts, just spend the cash and get mips and be done with it

If you want rugid and bolt in, then R2J makes some nice stainless link kits. I just finished installing partial kits on my SCX and Wraith and both were top notch.

Yes, you can 4 link the front. You just need another plastic axial 4-link truss, and a couple Traxxas 105mm T-maxx turnbuckles threaded all the way in work perfect for uppers.

The issue with the Axial link kit is that it is still only 3mm rod ends, which have a short service life. The larger Revo or Jato joints last much longer and take a 4mm setscrew. If you bust those, RPM makes a heavy duty version.

The only aftermarket driveshafts that I can recommend are the MIP's. I've destroyed all versions of the plastic Traxxas shafts, a set of Junfacs, and finally got the MIP's. Their only downside is they are kinda heavy.

Well I actually had the day off today so I decided to just make some. They came out alright, I guess I didn't cut all the bars the exact same so it has a slight "dog leg". I'm prolly gonna redo them tomorrow and take my time since I have a better idea of the out come lol. All I had time to do was the rear 4 link uppers and lowers. Tomorrow I'm gonna do the lower fronts and try to redo the rear. Also I'm gonna order the MIPS driveshafts since that's what u guys recomemend.

Thx for all the info guys/gals it helped me out greatly!!!
