| Trailing arms vs. 4 link
Hey y'all, quick question. What's best set up for the rear end of the Element Knightrunner. I was thinking about going with trailing arms, for more wheel travel. Which set up is better?

What's best is how it comes outta the box. Trailing arms will give you that extra wheel travel but it does soften up the rear so you may also want a swaybar to help it. You'll need the shock mounts from the GK as well as the swaybar if you wanted it. I currently still have the trailing arms installed in my GK with KR body, but I installed the shocks in the 4 link position at the moment. Basically it's the conventional 4 link setup but visually has the arms. |

4 link is better for crawling, Trailing arm is more suited for desert racing or bashing.
