Someone built one on here with a Croc hunter body and did leafs on the rear, but I can't find the dang thread. It's here somewhere.

RC Nerds makes the parts to do it. Seems like a cool idea. https://www.shapeways.com/product/PR...li=marketplace |

Yep, I did it in the rear of mine with tf2 leafs. I extended the chassis and it works well, not sure you could do it without the extension.  I made some u bolts to attach it to the axle.   Last edited by Roodki; 10-24-2018 at 05:03 AM. |

Finally I try on mine with Tamiya leafs, ~90mm eye to eye, and it doesn’t work properly, axle moves out of wheel arch.
