Default Link setup question

Ok so i currently have my scx10 links setup to where they have been for a while with the body that i have and i recently was told that if i swap them my truck would handle better. I have really long links up front and short links in the rear. is there really a benefit of having short links up front and long links in the rear? I will post up some pics in a second

It will probably (not enough info to say for sure) give more front weight bias, lower anti squat number and a more desirable line of force.Another 4 Link Thread

By moving your front axle away from the cog with the longer links you have moved your front to rear bias forward also. Imo that helps with your break over point which is good. But then I run an moa with the battery mounted over the front axle so what do I know.

That setup is all TURTLE runs and it works for him. Let it buck.
