When you upgrade your links, get the longer Revo ends. It'll extend your rear wheel base enough to center that rear axle into your wheel well.

How wide is the summit rear bumper? Looks awesome man!

Nice. That looks pretty decent. Thank for doing this, I have been wondering what the might look like. Better than I thought. I was thinking about doing something like this for a ridgecrest. But I believe the axles are wider, and that might ruin the appearance.

the bumper is just a fuzz over 7 inches wide, that is the revo body and I did cut the flares to get the rear tires to stop grinding the body when suspension is compressed or flexed! and thanks for the comments "thumbsup""thumbsup"
