Default Wheelbase Question

I am new but have been researching alot. I just bought a ax-10. With the SWX chassis and links.
My wheelbase is @ 12.75. What is an easy way to shorten this thing up to 12.5inches?

thanks in advance
this side is full of good info, this site is now my new home

new links or raise the center hight of your chassis.that would bring the tires closer together

Move your link mounting points or upgrade to some shorter endlinks.

Move the links closer to the center of your rig.

With the SWX shorten up your lower links. Did you use the spacers that came with chassis on your links if you did just remove it and you should be right at 12.5"
