Default Bruiser crawler

I'd like to set up my Bruiser to rock crawl while keeping it as stock as posable! Anyone have some pics of their suspension set up?

Are you keeping leafs? If so it will not flex much. Just keep that in mind? I am toying with making links w/o drilling new holes, planning on using holes already there. Just a thought for me. Still have not made up my mind.

I’d like to keep the leafs. I plan on getting the RC4WD buiserupter rear axle to keep it clean and clutter free. I’ll do the o-ring and chino mods on the springs to improve flex. If I can get it flex better then a bone stock TF2 I’ll be happy. I will not use t-boxes or shooter shackles! Maybe try a 3/4 elliptic rears.

You don't need flex to crawl. Sticky tires and a high turn motor are your first port of call.

You’re right but it does help. I’d like to set it up to be a capable class 1 rig. I’ll most likely never use it as a class 1 but that’s the goal!
