Default Suspension Link Set's for SCX10 II

There are a lot of Suspension Link Set's out there now for SCX10 II
Don't know if Any One set is better then the other and vary in price from $59. to $79. dollars a set.
Some have no rod ends some come with plastic rod ends and some have metal rod ends.
After checking them all out on the interweb.
I decided to go with the: Integy ~ Stainless Steel Linkage Set w/ Alloy Rod Ends
One of the higher priced set's at $79.
I like the Alloy Red rod ends I think they will go good with all my Red STRC Part's that I have on my truck now.

I have those metal end on my build but they are a bit narrow and I had install a specter and washers to make up the gap. Just an FYI...

Aluminum rod ends are generally not a good idea. The balls are usually sloppy and the rod ends usually bend easily.
It's much cheaper and easier to replace a cheap plastic rod end. Plastic rod ends will flex a bit and the balls are tight.

Thanks, kaaina & SSD ~ For the INFO
I haven't ordered a set yet so I am going to look in to the SSD Ones once agine.
That dose make sense about the flex ability of the plastic rod ends.
It dose pay to post before you buy, Lessen learned. ~ Thanks agine !!!

I went one of the more expensive routes but couldn't be happier. I am using the Samix Ti high clearance link set with RPM rod ends. The RPMs are super beefy! I use the RC4WD SS Axial width balls, come with ends but the plastic is brittle and only m3 thread so I just toss them. The RPMs hold them super snug and I haven't gotten any play out of any of my three trucks I have set up with these.

Definitely makes screwing on the rod ends easier, not a fan of the look but the added clearance is well worth it.

After looking at all the link set's out there for the SCX10 II ~ All once more.
There All Good ~ STRC / Vanquish / SSD and Others all make vary good link sets.
I decided to get: The ones in the pics below that I found on the Bay.
Thay look vary heavy duty and comes with a Four Link Option, All the Rod End's and Hardware.
