Where did you get the idea for all those links? I think I know.  |

if you are gonna use the revo ends, on the lower front links you will need to slightly shave down the top of the end to keep it moving freely in the axle side mount.  shocks are filled with the supplied 35 wt oil and gold springs i drilled out some jeepin doug spring cups to fit the larger shaft and limited the shocks front are limited internaly .25" and externally with .31"  rears ar limited externally only with .5"  |

Looks great. Do you think the ti links are tough enough to keep from folding in a bind? I've never used it, but a few of those bends are pretty big. Now get it running.......... |

The bender we built has a foot long bar for leverage and they were still tough! | |

Always loved these chassis'. Definitely watching this build... It'll be a tough call between the UGC MOA fastback and this I won't lie!

Aww.....CRAP! I just built a brand new V3 for the end of our Spring Season and Summer Shootout, then I got a bug up my ass that I needed a white one for Nationals, now this....? I'm gonna be three deep in these things before year is out! Yea, yea, Jeremy, you're going to tell me that I don't have to buy one out of the first batch, but c'mon, look at the thing! How can I not? Fantastic work again, Jeremy! |

The build is looking very cool. Are you comfortable with the shaved down rod ends? I have done that in the past and broken one at the thin spot. Also curious why you limited your shocks so much. Does the BJ chassis work better with shorter shocks? |

I got to fondle this rig over the weekend. The links are insane and super strong. I'm jealous.

The chassis uses 4 inch shocks, just not all the travel they provide. I limit them to control the amount of articulation. The amount might change that is just what looked about right. | |
