You can get some XR10 axles and make your own links but by then you could of just threw a body of a truck you like on an XR10 and been done.

Fitting XR10 axles with the proper length links to match your body WB wouldn't be too hard.

I've been looking at some axels saw I set on here that had 4 link mounts centered on axels. Them plus making 4 upper links to suit wouldn't be to hard. I doubt I'd even have to bend them.

I like to be different, plus I'm over drive shafts, and the amount of room I'd gain from removing the transmission for electrics.

I'm sure you can do it, but meh. I like my SCX because it has shafts.

Wouldn't the motor hit the chassis rails when it flexes?
It's already a tight squeeze just for the servo.
Or are you thinking extreme lift?

Well I saw a set of axels on here for sale that had 4 link up top and center and servo to the right, I couldn't see how any of it would bind up really, the most I could tell from my imagination. That it would be as simple as custom links and tranny removal. But that was just with that certain type of axel I saw
