ssd and vanquish links problem

[4everyoung]

whats up guys, putting my ssd d60 axles under my scx and the vanquish 3 link seems to be too long and pushes my axle forward and tilts the diff cover towards the ground.... anyone else have this problem.? tmw im going to loosen the bottom links but seems like a crappy fix

Hard to tell without pictures, but you might be able to swap one end of the lower links with jato rod ends. The jato ends are a little longer.

Lower link mounts and upper link mounts in same spot as stock

I had the same issue. My fix was to use the plastic 3 link arm mount that came with the SSD axle (Really did not want to go this route since I just dropped some good coin on the VP 3 link). As for the bent titanium arm that is supposed to connect to it I had to put that in my storage bin and use a shorter VP link that I had. I cant recall the size but it wasn't that much shorter, maybe 2-4mm. Took some time to get the alignment dialed in but it worked. I didn't even bend the new bar. Works just fine.

You should be using the SSD axle link mounts with the SSD housing...the VP link mount is for the Axial axle housing. Otherwise, yes you'll have problems.
