Default Going for shorter wheelbase

As the title says, I want to shorten the wheelbase about 20-25mm in the rear. I've looked and looked and the only way I'm able to get the link lengths I'm after is by using upper links on bottom.

Anyone else tried this before? Cause I've also been thinking of trying the high clearance uppers on bottom (lowers I run now catch on stair steps really bad) for a while now anyways.

Make your own links to whatever length you want. Very simple - anyone can do it. Buy some threaded rod from hardware store and some metal tubing to use as a sleeve over the threaded rod - add traxxas rod ends to each end and you have links made to suit.

Can they be bent? I've seen that trick done but I don't remember anyone bending them.
