Default Torque Twist

Could anyone tell me is torque twist affected by wheelbase length?Iam currently running standard tlt chassis, no cantilevers, with t maxx shocks, its weelbase is just over 10" and I have no real problems with torque twist, BUT I want to put a jeep wrangler rubicon body on it, this means I will have to lengthen it to @12.5" will this cause more torque twist???Also is 12.5" the correct wheelbase for a jeep wrangler rubicon body? THANKS JOHN.

Torque twist is from link placement/design and how torquey the motor is. As long as your links are set up well, you shouldn't have too much twist. I have all my links coming to a single point at the chassis and have almost zero twist at 12.5". If you begin having problems, look around at different build ups and see the link setups they're using for ideas.
