Default chassis

i remember seeing a thread on here that any aftermarket chassis would work. Has anyone switched over? or even mod'd there RF chassis, besides a tuber?

With 4-link mounts in both the front and rear you can make a aftermarket chassis work. A motor mount will most likely be needed too. Which chassis will depend on your overall desired setup as far as ride height and wheelbase goes. With the 4-link mount position being higher on the axle than other axles out there you may lose some tuning options with squat or anti squat unless you change the overall chassis height.

Killjoyken's SWX works well with the modifications he made to the chassis. I'm hoping mine will work as good when it is finally done.
