Default who else makes steering links for the wraith??

Ok so vanquish has been out of stock for a while, at least every time I check so who else makes them?

Also, kinda bummed I bought hot racing lower axle/shock mounts, have you seen the new axial ones? Oh man adjustable and really sweet looking

You can make them yourself with parts from the hardware store. They are easy and cheap.

Here is one that I built for my rear steer:



I used all thread and sleeved it with aluminum. The only tools I used were a pair of sidecutters, my dremmel to bevel the edge of the all thread (so that the rod ends threaded easier), a cheap hand bender and a small pipe cutter.

I have some Stage3 tie rods on mine but I am not overly happy with them, they fit the stock axial ball sockets and have a lot of up/down travel, some thick o-rings would fix it bur I find it frustrating that they do not come with the kit, I wish I had just bought thbe VP ones. I am going to try to make the ones I have work before replacing them but if I did it over again I would get the VP units.

Avoid the level 3.

Mine bent the first time I ran into a desk chair (the one on wheels!) Bent up and the plastic balls (the original plastic ball).

It also doesn't clear the diff cover without trimming.

I might make my own one up. I did for my AX10.
