Leaf spring???

[Hydro-Tank]

Hey is there a way to hook up leaf springs to the stock Losi Trekker axle with out drilling holes in them? Also what leaf springs are the best?

Pictures are much appreciated, thank you.

I don't know anything about the leaf springs, so I want to make sure that is clear, lol.

What I wanted to ask is will a Torsion Chassis work for what you are trying to do?

I'd say that depends on the build. A scaler with heavy wheels and tires, chassis mounted servo/electrics, and model kit body and outfitting would work well with leaf springs.

Now a lightweight with a short wheelbase would probably be a bouncy, unstable mess. I'd try a set just to try and tinker with. I'd like the idea of a leaf sprung front and linked rear in a truggyfied build.
