you could use wraith trailing arms from Blue monkey or even the +1 twin hammer arms too.

I'm interested in the same. Not sure how it'll work out with the drive line angle with shorter arms. Keep the updates coming. Mounts I came up with in case you didn't catch it: Shortcourse Body Mounts Last edited by Briansshop; 01-31-2015 at 10:08 AM. |

Wheel base is about as close as I could get it already gonna be tight for rear suspension to have good travel with such short trailing arms Sorry about the huge pics I'm doing this from my iPhone and that's all the photobucket will let me do ... |

How does the cage fit with that body? I love the proline OJ Bronco. I can't wait to see how this turns out! |

It doesn't fit to narrow will look funny. So I'll probably build my own cage

Are you set on using the Bronco body ? I'm gonna use either the Associated SC8 or HPI Apache SC body . Both fit the wheelbase , and I'm hoping that Pro-Line comes out with the one I've seen that is Yeti specific .

I love the look of the Bronco body on there! Can't wait to see how this turns out because my Yeti has been sitting in the trunk of my car since I got a TH. This may be the thing to make me want to play with the Yeti again.

Ya I always wanted to use this bronco body on something I'm a little upset with my self right now haha I'm screwed if I ever wanna go back to yeti wheel base cuz I cut the drive line down. And just saw I'm my parts pack that there was shorter drive line parts in there! :Faceplam: guess I'll be ordering an aftermarket drive line haha

That is looking GOOD! I'm still wondering about the super short lower links and how they're going to work out.

Thanks. Ya I hope the work out. If they fail I might make a mount cuter under the chassis and use the yeti trailing arms. Just if I did it that way if have no way to make the uppers longer. So not sure how well it would work with long lowers and short uppers
