Yea Ofnajoe, I saw that same website awhile back just can't recall the name and I also even tried to contact them to see about their back order and never got an answer. If you keep your eye out the for sale thread you might get lucky and pick one up.

CMS can be done using stock axial parts and custom made links, for just a few bucks

here's a few pics, I didn't take a lot of pics when I done this setup for a local guy, hope they're enuff to give you the basic idea and lay out.





it's just a stock axial servo plate mounted to the inside of the chassis, does require a small spacer between frame and plate at the front mounting hole. then I used a piece of a #35 chain half link to make the top 3rd link bracket on the axle. just twisted it, as so the holes were off set. the panhard mounts to the top of the knuckle and to rear inner most servo mounting bolt. and I made all the links myself as well. this setup did have just a touch of bump steer, but was tolerable, IMO.

I kinda see how its set up but unsure as to how the panhard bar mounts on the top near the frame..is it just attach on one of the servo mount screws?

yes, correct, the one closest to the center of chassis.

Good thing I stocked up on em

IMO the hardest part is reliably attaching the panhard to the axle. Mounting the servo to the chassis and panhard at the chassis, not so much.

I was looking at that level 3 rc piece but im sure I would destroy it quickly. im still looking for front cms and 3 link and a rear 3 link that are hand bros....why would they stop making something that people want to keep giving them money for?
