|  SWX chassis link lengths? I want to swap out the stock chassis for the SWX chassis and i need to know what lenghts are the upper and lower links and what ends to use if it matters. I just bought a AX-10 with aluminum links. a buddy gave me the chassis with no links and i want to get the same wheel base as stock ( I think). Any idea of which lengths to buy? |

If you buy the SWX new the links are included, no math involved...  The one real problem with this chassis is binding, you need to replace the lower-link ball-ends going the chassis with the Axial bent ball-ends. As far as those new links you have, I recommend not running them, you'll get more money out of them if they are new (they won't work on the SWX chassis unless you extend your drive shafts; and if you compete you'll be too long.) |

Why not commission one of our vendors to make you some nice new bent links, out of delrin? Pretty sure R2J does them. I have bent delrin links on my SWX, and they work great.

Skills, props and the generosity! Thanks for the free lower links R2j. With the lowers and the uppers i bought from you and the 4 link plate from Axial you suggested, the set up was awesome. The old familar park in Lakewood was boring to the 7 year old now. Now he is popping drive shafts left and right. thanks R2j.  |
