I tried that set up but with the knuckles on the back like that, they were hitting my lower links, the way I have them set up. It would be pretty easy to make it work but I didn't want to fawk around with re-mounting stuff. Plus, it's a pain to get the servos in there with the motor like it is, and I have my shocks mounted to the axle so there was no room, on mine.

It's deffenatly a cool mod, but it takes a little finesse to make it work.

That would be me.

My suspension link runs between the two steering links like:

o <---Servo to top of knuckle
== <---Suspension link
o <---knuckle to knuckle

Fits fine w/ no binding/contact, even when articulating.

Hope this helps!
If you have any more questions, feel free to ask!

Whoah Destroyer, that is a pretty odd looking crawler you got there! Does that Z-link in the drag link affect steering? Any other pics of it? How do you have your links setup? I

I'll snap a closer pic for you tomorrow. I've been using the axles for my tuber, but it's still the same basic setup.
