This rig is really performing good! Sorry for the bad pic...

Details on how to move skid up in rear of the chassis?

Super simple, undo the rear uppers at the chassis and push the rear up. Basically dropping a hole on the uppers on the inside but keeping the same location on the cab portion.

I tried it on mine after seeing Snatch's rig couple weeks ago but didn't like how it made the rear feel, very soft and unloaded weird when climbing something.

Think Chris hit it with changing the shocks angle though

Going back to it once I get a couple replacement parts in this week.

I always do a picture of my link geometry,just to be sure that antisquat will be the same as before.So far i really love this setup
No problems with the rear for me because my rebound is very slow. I drive 200g oft weights per side in the front and also 50g p.S. in the rear, so my shock oil has to be really tough to let the crawler work slowly

Rear uppers: 133mm eye to eye


Are these similar lengths to what I'll need?

Cars running good, changed back to Voodoo silver pin tires and headed to the Best of the West. I finished 10th, not exactly how I wanted to finish. The courses were extreme and had incredible traction, then the rain came. I can't seem to escape the rain at these comps this year! Anyway, it was a very fun time and will be going again next year, haven't missed one yet there. On to the pics...

Championships are done, 17th place for me in pro. It coulda been a lot better if I didn't break this gear in the front, happened on a course that I shoulda finished with at least a -30. No more 4 cell batteries for me!

I broke the same gear with a 3 cell last year. They are much stronger then the XR10 gears! Great driving with the Bully last week.

Looks very good as usual
I see you did the same little chassis-modification like i did
Was the reason for the broken gear only too much power because of 4s or did you jam on a rock?

Usually happens when falling off a rock and landing on throttle, this time though it landed on its back and heard the pop, bearings were toasted as well which caused the slop to destroy the gear.
