I dont know about the SCX, but I used the Boomerang 4 link kit from TCS Crawlers and the stock upper links on my AX10. Like I said I really dont know al the differences but I dont see any reason why it wouldnt work. If you are going custom on the length of the 4 link, I always set the wheelbase with the lowers and measured the length of the uppers by just setting the pinion angle where you want (I tilt the pinion up to try to eliminate as much of that angle as possible.) When you get the pinion angle you are looking for measure from there to get the upper link length.

I hope this helps, I am by no means a pro at this so if anyone with better info comes along its all good.

I just converted an Axial rtc to four link and used 68mm upper links. That is the tube length. I used TCS boomerang on the rear and their servo mount/4 link plate up front.
