Default What suspension links do I need for my Gspeed build?

I have the SCX10ii skid, and looking to run AR60 axles. Will links made for either rig work fine? Or is it dependant on my wheelbase? Need help in most newbiest voice!

It will depend on what wheel base you want. Just buy assorted sizes and shapes and go from there.

Hardcore Rc is back selling links also. Build what components, skid etc. I’ve got a set of titanium links that fit great from them for my v3 now on my Sherpa and a set of stainless coming for my C1

I planned on going with those actually.

I have modded my HPI Venture for scale and heaviness and really don't want to hack up the body (FJ Cruiser fan). I regret modding this thing late into the game because I would've bought another body for this light slammed LCG build. So I may go with the Proline FJ45 to hack up or give up the whole back half idea and do the MST FJ45 body.

Thanks for the refernece link to intheworks. I've got a G speed V3 package for the Element Enduro I'm planning on converting. Yes, I purchased the G-LD (Lay down servo) mount.

I've got Club 5 high clearance link for the Enduro which I will use , BUT re: steering link I'm not sure

1. which length steering LINK (mm) is supposed to be used with the Element axles. Can anyone confirm? The Club 5 heavy duty steering link I use, is "75mm" , but I'm not sure how this marries up with the G-LD servo mount.

Also, if I decide not to use the G-LD servo mount right now and just use the V3 packages universal panhard, can anyone confirm if my 75mm steering link will fit?

Thanks guys!

For that combo you might be on your own, those axles are a bit less common on these. What I'd do is mock up the axle and servo on the chassis, center the servo horn (pointing straight down) and measure it, just factor in how long the rod ends are.

The drag links for the AR44 axle is probably close, you might be able to fine tune it with different rod ends.

I didn't realize how intuitive it is for the custom links submenu. Just placed an order, thanks!
