MY suspension articulation mod
 
first think of a stick crawler. they run 2 shocks right? so I thought can I do this with my nylint? I tried the 2 shock set-up and the tires will rub the fenders it has so much articulation. the 2 shocks will keep the body mostly up-right too. I haven't trail tested it yet but I will tommorw. :) GO MOD OUR NYLINTS :mrgreen:

a better description? take a shock off the front left corner. then take off a shock from your right rear corner... there :lol:

the proof is in the pudding
 
I just trail tested it. I could hardly see it caus it was dark but it has ALOT more articulation. Rocks I could never go over stock it went over :shock: I can't wait to run it some more tommorw. the only problem is sometimes the body want to lean either side. :x it's still funner than stock :lol:

I mono-shocked the rear and you can get insane flex that way, but it wheel's like s***. I actually got over 180 degrees of rear axle articulation. the only thing limiting more was the fact that the motor sire was too short and wrapped itself around the sharpie tube too much. I was trying to make bump stops because it flexed great, but figured out a better solution. I threw pics up in a new thread I started.
