The cheapest way is to remove the plastic stops from the hubs and shave the inner portion of the Clod stub axles. Dezfan has a how-to thread/photo somewhere on this. Just make sure your tires won't hit your lower 4-link bars with that much travel.

Cut the stops off the top and bottom of the knuckles, and then mod the outer axle in this manner. Nets a fairly large increase over stock. |

As long as you don't go much beyond the 2mm reduction, you should have any problems w/ the axle and stub disengaging. | |

I think having 2 esc for front/rear dig would help alot. If you did, you have to get radio with 4 or more channels
