Not the best in the world, and i will be upgrading slowly, but here it is, im running dirt hawgs right now, they perform better than the stock clods. Here's my first attempt at a 4 Link.

Really bad, so i rethought it, did some research, and put about 7 hours of work. adn i got this, really happy with the outcome, just need new servo, and left rear shock, anyone know what mods i can do to make dirt hawgs better?

invest in a good chassis to start with, if u want something affordable since u already have the axles check this out or u can PM "run2jeepn" he can hook u up ,heres the link http://www.jpcustomrcs.atomicshops.c...51/4462036.htm good luck on your build, oh and you'll love the pimp cane if u go with that set up, very predictable

Cool man, we all start somewhere. I started by 4 linking the stock chassis too, it's fun because you get to build it yourself and see how things work. And like you said, just work away at it and upgrade as you go.

If you want a little more travel from those stock Clod shocks, you can remove the rubber tube damper off the shaft.
