Moving a long with the fastback cage mod. Everything sanded smooth.

Removed the L3 lowering kit. I was running the axial rubber bushings in the BBs but when i reinstalled after removing the lowering kit they ripped. So I had to come up with something. Removed the bushings out of the plastic links I replaced last night and used my dremmel to make them fit. Worked out nice for now.

Well after some soldering work my cc bec is installed and set to 7.4v I located it on the back side of the firewall for now. Didnt want to get too crazy about the location because I will be replacing the stock ecs and motor soon. This servo cant even tell its turning tsl xl's. Throws them around with no effort at all. Glad I didnt cheap out on this mod.

Any way you can get those links more parallel? The closer you can get them, the less bump steer you will have.

If he has room to move cross link from knuckle to knuckle on top of the steering arm it would raise the outside of the dragline up closer to parallel.
