Unhappy need help - independent suspension

I have an idea brewing in my head but I'm not sure where to go with it.

If you were going to build a rig with an independent suspension, what body would you choose? Full independent suspension or front only and a solid rear axle? I'm leaning more towards a street type truck but I'm not sure yet. Could an independent suspension rig compete in TTC type events and be competitive?

Thanks!

Personally I would go ifs, straight rear axle. And a pickup Ford raptor myself. A cco1 is that layout and a great durable little rig. For a stock style truck. To compete in a Ttc look at the real deal, they are almost always a solid axle front and rear. They do better on the rocks because the axle has better clearancein the rocks.

I guess I'm trying to feed all addictions with one truck (speed, crawling) lol. We'll see where it goes...

Thanks!

I tried that in 1:1... It rarely works like we want.

But, good luck and I will be looking to see what you come up with! Don't be afraid to play!
