 not yetlets wait and see how your g3 does against my truck first  beav the g3 is going to be a good chassis. but the slingshot is worthy aswell. I was up till 5am putting together my second. now I do plan to get a g3,and I will compare then. but your good. | |

mini t front shocks for the slingshot. 4 back up front 3 back in the rear red springs up front orange in the rear. set preload at about 1/4 all the way around. this will get you real damn close to dialed. depending on your weight,ect. I aint givin it all away | |

ok here is a body off shot of both trucks. one on the left has served me well. no drope on that truck. the one on the right I put together last night,not finished yet. both have a goose system. but the one on the left is very stock slingshot. the one on the right is far fron stock. evrything is trimed from the skid to the chassis to the axles. the two trucks actually weigh within 2 grams of eachother now. but the weight of the truck on the right will be droping about 22grams over the next month. and I'm trying to keep the wieght lower. I have hopes this truck will perform well. these will be 2 of the 5 trucks I test my personal chassis design against. |

i got the truck last night and its a basket case !!! the guy i bought it from has it all messed up alot of good parts but everything is hitting .. may need a pic of the proper linkage setup and placement ... i think he is running mini t shocks they are threaded.... no springs. but have some blue ones and short orange ones springs .. i think it came with the m ini t fronts not installed also ....
