You'll have to have a panhard in order for that to work right. Also your caster is horrid, which means it'll steer like crap (Thats easily fixed though) Look to get some triangulation on those links to keep it centered. Also, Isn't the clodzilla something like that, a 4 link kit that bolts onto the stock chassis? So yes, people would buy it ;) |

Like Dave said. Ya gotta have triangulation in the upper or lower links. BTTB, I have noticed in your videos that your tuber does not have enough triangulation and the axles walk from side to side as well. Ya need to correct that if you want to sell them. I think using the stock chassis is a good idea, good luck. |

Yep. Triangulation is needed. And that yogurt has 3 grams of saturated fat! |

Well triangulation does wonders in a truck, but my old stampede has a setup like that on the rear and it works fine, but it can get a little crooked after it articulates alot, but i fix that easily myself by wrenching the axle the other way but anyways if you're using the thing for crawling i doubt whether or not you would really notice the axle being crooked.
