What front and rear 4-link did you Install?

[nmsuman]

Looking to see what brands of 4-link upgrades are out there. Looking to upgrade the front from 3-link to 4-link and do it all in aluminum on the Power Wagon 12.3" wheelbase. Wanted to see what everyone was using and experiences.

Locked Up RC Pro CMS kit... Pro CMS - SCX10

The kit is great and why not run CMS? Only thing I changed was the trac bar and the drag link got swapped for a set of Traxxas turnbuckles. Nothing wrong with the stock parts, just really wanted to beef it up to be bullet-proof.

I also like the STRC 4 link mount if you go that way and you don't want to spend a fortune. I'm sure you'll get plenty of suggestions.

I got the Vanquish CMS kit for my honcho (also has the 12.3 wb) which 4-links the rear and converts to cms/panhard for the front like the previous post said, but if you just want it 4-linked for the front and the rear, and no panhard for the front, you can get this kit which does that (also made by Vanquish):

First one:
Axial SCX 3 Link / CMS / Panhard Conversion Kit for Stock 12.3 WB Black Anodized - Vanquish Products


Second one:
Axial SCX / JK 4 Link Conversion Kit with Stock Axles - Vanquish Products

Check out the links from R2J.
Stainless steel doesn't gouge and catch on the rocks like aluminum.

I got the hot racing one. Haven't had it out crawling yet but seems like real good quality.

Junk. I blew the joints out of mine in like two weeks. The little brass rings that hold in the ball will pop out and won't go back in.

If You haven't installed them yet take them back.

I bought some delrin links from Darth Sprocket Fabrications. In my opinion nothing is gonna slide like delrin.

I thank you all. There are more options popping up than in my searches. Glad i asked the question.

I have seen the Vanquish, Axial Racing, Boom Racing, and SSD.

I liked the links Boom Racing so far but couldn't find any reviews. I like the Gun metal color, but didn't want them to just look good and be only bit stronger as the plastic ones already on the truck.

Quickly noticing. Today I went out for my first bash in public where I knew there would be some places to push the truck a bit. There was one point where it got wedged in between some rocks on ascent in the water and I watched the right rear tire flex the control arms so bad I thought for sure it should have snapped something.

The priority of this first swap is now higher. So it's done.

Vanquish 4 link conversion is - ordered
G.P.M. Tie rod - ordered

Now to just wait for delivery.

I'll let you know. Be patient as parts are coming from the US to where I live overseas. The front steering should be here rather quick as I purchased on Amazon.de.

Update to the post. Links showed up last week while I was on vacation. I took possession this week and will work over the coming days to get them installed. I am excited to get the bend-gate out of the suspension. HAHA!

They may do fine, and last a while if that's all you're using it for. Get it anywhere near rocks, and they'll be junk.

[sharkattack99]

Nope no rocks with the one they are one just a trail/mud truck hauler (mainly that) I know that the hot Racing steering links are bad bought them for my wraith and they did what you posted earlier that little ring pops out and once out it won't stay in....i don't see that in the regular links though.

All my lowers are shot, same as the steering. They've popped out, all 8 of them. The uppers are fine, I plan to leave them for the time being and just replace the lowers.
