Just bend em. You may have to support the bend though, maybe a nicely placed cross member or something. If the bend is slight it will probably be alright. I am going to put a little bend in the links on my stick. I think the bent links work pretty good for this guy. I read an interview on this dude and he have mad props to the bent links. Forgot what mag it was though. You figure out on here that opinions are like A$$ holes, everyone has one. Just try it and if it fooks up, well, it didn't work. That is how there are a great amount of innovation and damn clever ideas on forum. If everyone took everyones advise all the time we would all have the same crawler!

Hey Kamikaze, I guess i might be trying to over think this...lol I'll leave the lower links as they are for now and just add a bit of weight to the front tires..... I got the dx6 programed this weekend and I'm realizing the 100 oz servos are not going to be enough. The lhs has a set of 330 oz in stock so I'll pick them up after the second rooster gets here. I also had them order me a cc bec to help with the voltage. BTW i have ot go to florida for training the week of the 15th so I'll have to wait till next month to make it to the comp.
