you should change your lower link tube material. go find you some push rods from a diesel truck engine. there strong ,they look a little more scale, and they can take a beating.

very original."thumbsup"

Here you go

I used 1/4" spacers on the axles to help clear the body.
Stand the front shock straight up so tire has full steering (no rubbing on shock)

there's plenty of room for adjustment if you prefer longer shocks

I run internal springs ... on some old rc10 rear shocks.
