Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made What would be the benefit of running straight links compared to bent? I'd say if you're going to run straights, at least run the offset (bent) rod ends to eliminate any potential binding issues. |
Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made from what I can tell the bend in the yeti uppers don't help with rod end angle. Just for looks? I guess? lol |

Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made The bent links are to clear the drive shaft. The one in the top photo has the SSD centered diff. Might clear with an offset diff and the skinny MIP too. |
Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made Ohhh I have a centered Currie....that explains it. |

Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made I've had straight links since the RTR came out. These are aluminum with aluminum set screws. Now replaced with Titanium links. No issues at all. http://i371.photobucket.com/albums/o...psd5bju4yo.jpg |

Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made RC4WD has the bent rod ends . they are the same size as revo ends and are just as inexpensive work great for steering linkage. Also traxxas 1/10 rod ends come long and short. And can be for any 1/10 or 1/8 traxxas model .. Sent from my Z752C using Tapatalk |
Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made I've put my Revo's in a hobby vise, used a heat gun and made my own bent ones. |

Re: straight Yeti Rear Upper Suspension Link | home made Just finished ! [emoji3] M3 RC4WD bent rod ends ends with a 102mm lenght 6mm OD rod with a M3 thread at each end , instead of the traxxas straight rod ends with a 106mm lenght rod. Works perfect and cheap !
