Looking good. I ended up taking off the bottom support on the steering protectors on mine. They got hung up on everything.

I like what you did with the body post. Good use of brake line.:-D

the shock angle is not to bad but i have a little to much twist and would like to actually restrict the rear shocks from compressing so much.

i actually sleeved the protector/bumper and the bottom rail actual is a roller. i did this by putting a big enough sleeve that allows it to roll when an object hit the center of the axle.

Hey I did that to mine but when I pick it up it shortins the wheel base. does yours do that. And you know how I can fix it.

I would suspect it has to do with the angle the shocks are at. They look like they would pivot down when you pick it up. Lengthen the chassis so the shocks are more verticle and that should help I would think.
