I will have to say that even with all the poo poo you have stirred, that I like the look of your rig, If you narrowed the tires , and remounted your shocks more up and down, it would look really scale but it looks good anywho! Kevin |

Is that steering damper something specific or just any short shock will do ? I am new to crawling so I appreciate any help . Thanks .

its just a short shock with no spring...nothing special but try different weights of shock oil with the servo disconnected. try to get it as thick as possible without straining the servo.
