Looks good. It would be nice if you offered it with the knuckles pre fabbed to fit.

i tried multiple configurations to find one for the 4 link, with no success. This is a give or take upgrade. what's more of a advantage?

if one can drive good enough, than it would be 4 link in most cases

I was wondering if there would be enough clearance if the shocks are mounted straight up. I run a hustler chassis. I would think the if there is any it would be at the draglink and I could just move the servo moore forward to get the clearance I need. Am I right in thinking this or would it not work with the Hustler configuration?

i think it will work. just make sure your shocks are mounted in the same spot as jeeper89 pictures.

Can this work with the 'CKRC Aluminum Upper 4 Link Bracket With Battery Mount' that I'm having?

Unfortunately, No. there isn't enough room for the servo arm to swing with any 4 link plate ive seen.

What if you flip the plate so the link is up top? That would work, but mess up the geometry of the four link. How bad is the question.

Its the actual 4 link mount itself that gets hit.

Got mine installed today. This BTA is one of the best mods I've ever made on one of my crawlers! Install too a little time, but was fairly easy. Having the proper tools helps. I added the Viper brackets at the same time. Of course I had to paint'em black to match the Rockstar chassis. Now this thing steers like nobody's business.

Guess I gotta go lipo now. That split pack looks bad on there.

You can get max steering by doing a little grinding on the stock drive cups. Took me about 5 minutes. Or go CVD.
