| Rear End Linked
Well I just took the turnbuckles off the rear end of my T-Maxx and fabbed em onto the rear of my crawler. Looks and works pretty killer! The shocks wouldnt work any longer so I took some wiring and wiring ends and fabbed up some limiting straps. Not sure if I'll do the front or not, I hate scavenging off my poor T-Maxx lol. I also might end up 4linking the rear if this setup doesnt work well |

looks nice, but one of the things i've found to be a downer is to much flex on the 1/18, but if it works for your crawling enviroment, then sweet

you need 2 more links going to the center of the axle because if ya leave it like the the axle will tip down you need it solid |

Actually after drivin this thing for a while the rear end is sackin out. Looks like the only reason it was being kept up is the stiffness of my limiting straps, gonna have to find a way to get those shocks on somehow or another. No they didnt stop working, they just are gonna be a pain to find a place to mount em

Just curious but does the rear axle slide to the left or right at all? i can't see it staying centered without some sort of trackbar or triangulated upper control arms.
