Default stretch what???

Hey, iam workin on a wheelie king based crawler, i've made one before with a nylint sorta.... so iam new at this...

anyway... i want to strech the wheel base of the crawler, now should i just use longer links, or build a chassis the moves the links farther from the transmission. something will remain stock for a bit, either different links with stock chassis, or stock links with custom chassis.

I've swapped axles so the battery is over the front end, i've ordered a 55T lathe/crawler motor, Esavage center shafts, a hitec645mg servo, and 4 proline moab 2.2 tires. should get me started... i think iam just going to run the stock rims unless i can find some beadlocks or something else at a good price...

any suggestions or ideas would be appreiated...

Lock your diffs,stretch the links and weight your wheels and you will love it.I'm running stampede wheels with sticky weights from the tire shop inside the rims,Use the forum search for all the stuff you will need to acomplish this.Good luck!
