This thing is going to be sweet! I like the way you set the rear end up with the servos connected to the shocks. It looks like a good set up.

Did the robarts use valves? Would have had to have been between .025" and .050" to be scale! I had 1/2" line and valves on my 1:1 lowrider and it would hop and was very violent. would love to have seen video of the truck doing its thing on air!

Nice.. I seen this a while back and was wondering when you were going to do a build thread. You need to show this bad boy off! Looking forward to seeing where it goes. |

Looks sweet! Im stuck on mine also. Tempted just to make the front static for now and get the rear working. Your rear setup is sweet i just dont know how well it would work for towing a trailer.
