Finally got the drive line and diff mounted and servo location set so now it's time to start the tube work...i was hoping to find a drive shaft combo that was a little shorter to make the two pivot points of the drive shaft and lower link line up but it cycles fine and doesnt bind or do anything weird so i'll give it a go.

Looks great! What's your plan for a sway bar? __________________________ 1.9 Ibex tuber - The Merica ibex. |

Might use a VP or Dlux sway bar, leaning towards the Dlux one since it offers more tune-ability with different rate bars. Anyone have feedback on the Dlux sway bar?

Hey Awesome truck. I have a couple questions. 1. What are those mounts your are using for your trailing arms and upper links? 2. What size wheels/tyres are those? 3. Are they yeti trailing arms? Thanks Keep up the good work Last edited by Batesy750; 04-28-2016 at 08:55 PM. Reason: Typo |

So I ordered Metal Concepts RC rear trailing arms and they are longer than VP trailing arms so I have to make some wheelbase adjustments, however the new arms will line up better with the drive shaft length and the two pivot points will be dead on so it's well worth the two steps backwards.
