Also thought I could add the rc4wd inner fenders fit fine with just a slight cut for the shock tower.

a lot of people have been asking and the IFS kits are currently running about 4-5 days of backlog. kits are shipped first in first out to be fair to everyone.

thx!

kind of...

we're still a few weeks out on the SCX10 IFS kits and we totally dropped the Twin Hammers / EXO conversion... its very hard to make chicken soup out of chicken sh#t especially with a bunch of irate VTH guys yelling at you... just wasn't worth the hassle. wraith and scx10 guys are more fun to develop products with .







our newest product: CMS for SCX10

Is it just the photo or is the panhard much shorter and on a different angle to the drag link?

there is 1/8 (.125") difference in the length. i'll leave that up to you as if you think that's "much shorter"

the angle can be equalized with high steer knuckles as explained in the product description

Havr you guys thought about powder coating the kit? I was also curious if spraying it with bed liner would hold up. It would look pretty tough I think.

we powdercoat some other stuff so its not out of the question. I've thought about anodizing which would be better but that would raise the cost a bit.

we've always tried to provide the lowest prices possible hence the lack of coating on most of our products. its a leap that is triggered by volume and we're pretty close.

but yea - if you want a set powdercoated just let me know. that's easy .






Link Dimensions (eye to eye) are as follows:

(1x) steering servo to aluminum bellcrank 2.88" 73mm

(2x) bellcrank to knuckles 3.275" 83mm

(2x) upper suspension links 2.95" 75mm
