|  Extending wheel base.
On my Redcat gen 8 I extended the wheel base all the way out. Has anyone else done this and run in to problems?

how far did you extend it did the drive shaft fall out are the tires rubbing the body can you stand on your head and pat your belly while drinking a cup of coffee |

I extended each link out to the last hole on the skid plate. No issues with driveshaft yet. everything looks good except for standing on head and patting stomach, that's a disaster. I wouldnt think it would be an issue but I am new to this and wanted to make sure from all of you that have more experience than me just guessing

I wouldn’t suspect you would have any problems, as long as you’re driveshafts don’t come apart and your steering doesn’t bind up. How does it look with the extended wheelbase? Pics please.

Looks good man. Lower it down a bit and it’ll crawl a bit better. But up high, it looks pretty bruiser like.
