linkage triangulation

[crawlhog]

For my lower links i cut out the ZNO batt.tray & moved the links to the inside. For my uppers I moved the electronics tray down & mounted the uppers in the old holes of the elec. tray which made all the links parralell. I took it out for a test drive on the rocks and the new set up worked 100% better. Gonna give it a real test sat. at the comp. against the heavy hitters to really see what the 10 can do.

Is there any way to get the lower closer together in the middle?

if i screw the rod ends into the batt. tray it will move them in more and it sits just a little over 3 inches

Ace Is the Place. Also you can buy the spacers there.

I would get three size of spacer the rear set up wider than the front.

I would put some up front as well. maybe .25 spacers.

Looks good. We are doing something similiar to this on our new stage 2 Suspension upgrade mounting the links to the inside of the skid.

Why are you going to space the upper link on the axle out? The triangulation is necessary to keep the axle from moving side to side.

Also how hard is it to get your battery in and out now that the electronics tray is that low?

i had to cut 1 inch off the back of your batt. tray. i then compress the suspension all the way down and slide the battery right in no problem. i tried it with out cutting the tray ,i was able to get it in but it chewed the crap out of my battery because of yhe force used to push it in. since i cut it it glides right in. also i did space it and tested ,didnt feel right so i put it back the way it was.

i couldn,t belive the perfomance difference by moving the links in and making the top parallel to the bottom. good idea on using it on your 2 stage i was gonna e mail you guys with some pics but i see you found the thread.
P.S. the skid is holding up great thank you ZNO.

That works yeah was wondering if you just charged the battery in there or what . Glad it is working good for you though.

I wish I wasn't so swamped with work or I'd have these new products done already. We are working on some pretty cool stuff.

Keep up the modifications though its looking great

thanks dude. as for the battery i just charge it in the tray and just take it out when i run a different batt.
cant wait to see the new products some of the boys i hang with run your stuff and all are very happy with them.
