Not that I know of, but interesting thought...

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.

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.

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