Question suspension question...

When building a scaler, what's the best way to set up the shocks...inside the chassis rails, outside the chassis rails, or pointing them in towards the center of the rig (example)?

I'm guessing outside the rails makes the rig more stable. Would pointing them towards the center make it articulate better?

Default

pointing them forward will add a little more flex plus it will be stable with them on the outside of the frame. if you put them on the inside then there will be to muh side to side wobble which would toss you top over when you are on a side hill in which it will roll over.
