Shouldn't you run braces on the lower section where you have lock nuts?

That is actually how it comes. It really is super strong as is. I dont see the need for cross members

i tested this with and with out and there is no need for it, the cab and chassis is bolted together above the upper link mount this making for 4 extra pressure points and the lock nuts are lighter than the cross member.

there was a few we put together and sold with them but not needed.

VERY sexy setup ya got goin.

I gotta say...this new chassis is aesthetically my favorite on the scene right now. I love my Switch, she works INCREDIBLY well & is still very cool lookin IMO but this Sniper chassis just looks badass...PERIOD.

Nice job T1E & nice stack-o-parts. Looks to be 1 killer build in the making

J.D.
