| Non-matching suspension set-up
I've been toying with the idea of making my TRX4 bronco more scale accurate, already installed smaller tires and portal deletes. I was curious if any of the builders on here a done a half leaf spring/half coil over set-up with two different style axles (RC4WD K44/yota2 for example) similar to the 1:1 '79 Bronco. I can't afford an experiment like this ATM, is anybody willing to give it a try? Or can anybody point me to a thread where it's been done already?

I'm considering a similar idea. I just ordered a Trail Finder 2 kit w/Mohave II 4dr body. Was tiring with the idea of replacing the rear links with leaf springs. Technically, my options are leave the configuration "as-is", replace rear links with leaf springs, or replace front & rear links with leaf springs (obviously, the most "scale accurate" option, but also with the worst wheel travel). Suggestions, anyone? ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

| Re: Non-matching suspension set-up Actually, I was just thinking about a couple things. First, as mentioned in my previous post, I'll probably never want to actually change the body. Second, I started thinking about wheelbase, and ground clearance, and realized the advantage of having a shorter wheelbase. So...I just cancelled my order for the 4dr version, and ordered the 2dr version. This will become my second crawler, after I finish building the Axial Capra (my first crawler). ~ More peace, love, laughter, & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |
