shocks

[hntz4x4]

I just rebuilt my WK using an Axial chasis & transmission. With the stock WK shocks the rig twists like crazy. Could someone recommend some good shocks that will control the twist? Also, would probably like to upgrade to aluminum bodied shocks.

Thanks

You can control yor torque twist better with your link placement than shocks.
With a axial chassis it helps alot to trangulate the lower links and four link the uppers.

Uppers

You can put some spacers inside the stock shocks and it will ower your center of gravity also. Helping you crawl steeper angles.
Spacer from home depot. 4 inches eye to eye worked great for mine.

I had some stiff Axial springs on my sons WK, so I swapped out the rear 2 and that made a huge difference.

Thanks
