I can't tell from the pic, what are you using in the top of the shock? Stock rubber bushing? And how wide is the chassis?

Looks good.
I just pulled the cab off of my 4.2 and I think I can say I like it. The berg took first this weekend at the PARC comp.

Can't wait to get mine.
2 Questions: Are you running a battery mount on the front axle? Why is the front left tire super shiny?

nice work jeremy

Cant wait to get mine but i guess I have too! From what you mentioned I will enjoy tuning it to my liking also.

I envy you for having all the arsenal at your disposal to develope and enlist manufactures to produce such a nice chassis.

I notice you running shaved boss claw side walls on the rear of your rig, I am yet to run this tire mod, do you think this is benificial on side slops with a consistant contact patch and to also aid forward bite?

What length are the springs you run, I ordered a set of those springs you told me about they are 64mm.

thanks! yours will be there very soon.

i do all of my own cutting and design now days. it is nice to be able to take an idea and make it come to life without having to wait on others. now i am just usually waiting for material.

the shaved boss claws...

i have been running those for some time all the way around. they are phenominal. shaving them softens the carcus to a point that foams become way more critical. they are very well suited to extremely high traction areas.

with that being said i do like to run non shaved fronts from time to time when a little more sidewall bite is needed.

Yeah most springs are 70mm but those come in 76 and 64mm, I figured I'd go 6mm shorter rather than longer, we will see.

^ The anticipation is killing me. I think it has something to do with the servo.

Agree.

Actually one that has holes in the middle too so you could do finer adjustments.

With your pieces in there your middle hole is now equal to where the stock top hole is correct?

Like Krawl said not going to step on anybody's toes with these, if I need some I will make them but do not want to start anything. I am sure if VP themselves do not do something with these someone around here will.
