Great rig man, I love leaf springs in 1:10 trucks. Trail Finder 2 kit is pretty high up on my wish list.

With a leaf spring rig that has CMS, do you get chassis push at all? I don't I can recall seeing a leafer with a panhard.

I wasn't sure if it was that or he thought I was running one and asking why

No I do not have one and I don't think its needed. This setup is nearly identical to that of a 1:1 toyota suspension which I modeled the kit after.

That's correct, just leaf springs. The only links your rig will have is for steering. None for suspension.

I'm sorry but I'm not sure what you mean. Shackles are in the back and hangers are out front just like toyotas come.

Body mounts to the sliders via the side screws.

Ah! I see it now. It just looked like shackles in the front at first glance.

No not entirely but easy to do with a set of beef tubes, a drill bit and tap and about 45minutes. I believe there are a few tutorials cruising around here on the process.
