Sure - you can even use Gatekeeper trailing arms on the rear to spice it up!

Hi,

I'm currently building a prerunner out of a SCX10ii chassis and I had a element IFS kit on it.

It was pretty bad, there was barely any travel, a lot of bump steer, and the overall steering geometry was horrible and stressed the servo.
The diff skid plate also hung way too low and got caught in a lot of things.

I've switched over to IFS from the front of a Slash 4x4, hardish to mount but drastically improved everything.

If you're going with 2wd, there are some guys that make I beam suspension for cralwer chassis.

Here's my build if you want to take a look, I haven't gotten pictures of the Slash IFS yet posted though.

I don't know if OP is still looking, but I managed to tuck the IFS up closer to the frame. For the time being (probably forever), it doesn't have front drive because the half shafts are to short with the extra travel I managed to get. But I need to continue to use the front differential housing as the bulkhead until I can have build a purpose made spacer to take it's place.
It has better steering geometry than factory while using mostly factory (some modified) parts.

I currently working on a design for a one piece skid that wrap from the front bumper mount all the way under to the center skid
