| IMO, put the shocks in the very top hole on the chassis (to lower the ride height). Measure the wheelbase, then subtract that number from 12.5. Then make a new chassis with the bottom section that much longer. You'll have to come up with something for the driveshafts...mine has Tmaxx units. This pic shows the WK with a 13.5" wheelbase. In the second pic, I have the stock lower arms on, which brought it back to 12.5".  (maybe even try just moving the rear suspension link mounting points back; this would give a more forward weight bias).  (I haven't has time to sort out the front driveshaft setup...) |
