It looks to have a ton of potential!

What is the center clearance at rest and full droop?

Nice looking w.k.! What are you running in your shocks; oil, springs over/under piston, etc...? Just curious. If you pick up the truck by the chasis do the axle's stay put, or do they droop down? If so, how much? I'm working on a droop setup myself, and trying to find a good combo to have the 4 link setup work properly.

This is just a test built,,,,,
I'm using 100 weight oil in the shocks for now, but it's not a runner yet.
So time will show how this will be.

nice servo and batt mount.

How stiff are those internal springs? With the shocks layed down that much they are prolly gonna have to be stiffer than the usual springs.
