With the krazed builds tungsten holders, I was able to fit 9 slugs and is 4.70oz each side. Lol. So later on if you want another option, definitely look into it. You can run 1-9 tungsten to get what you want and all of that weight is low, all at center axle line and below.

Is that with the stock wheels?

Yes. But depending how wide your hubs are, you might not be able to run 9 but 6 for sure. I added slw spacers to stock hubs.

I'll take a look at those again and knew I came across the tungsten weights somewhere. Was even thinking to by my own rod and figure it out but probably wouldn't be able to cut that hard stuff

If you go to the Krazed build website and find the hangers he has a link for the weights there they are weights for pinedurby cars

appreciate the recommendations and wondering if both these systems completely replace the rc4wd weights or can be used in conjunction with them?

So I set my micro 2's and put them together but didn't smash them completely and also ordered some J Concepts. I decided to take her out another time before changing out the hobbywing esc's which are working pretty good btw and don't get hot at all but weigh about 75-80g combined. Anyway I seen some rocks driving home from a park the other day which is less than 10min away from my house and decided to run there tonight because it's in the back of a store strip parking lot. Anyway to my surprise there were a lot more rocks so don't get jealous hah jk

Lookin good, time for pink springs all around since losing all that chassis weight. What 500 size battery did you go with? And how much softer is the front end with the shocks like that?

Went with the value hobby gforce 3S 50C 500mah and it weighs in at 47g. I might try these springs still because it seems soft enough especially with the fronts in the position they are in. Might have too much flex though but what do I know haha I'll be doing a lot of trial and error as it's my first. Somethings I've been thankful to learn from others experiences on here or talking with them in person.

If you think you have to much flex. Limit the shocks with internal or external spacers on the shock shaft. Don't add stiffer springs to limit articulation.
Just my 2cents

Internal for sure. I'll probably limit my fronts a little. Rear is already limited since it hits the rear cross support and links.

Thanks for the tip and I will be testing it out the next couple weeks with different setups and will definitely keep this in mind.
