| My FREE Gecko!!!!
Here it is. Dont really know how I want to build this one yet. These axles are for another project, but just on here for mock-up purposes. Im thinking of changing the upper-link rod ends to the rocket city ones, so I can put my bottom links on top of the c-hub. Once again, thanks Roktoy, Jason and RC-Guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Willy Flip your upper and lower links to get the geometry right if you are mounting the lower links on the UPPER part of the C-hub. No need to get longer ball ends. This will pretty much correct the geometry back to factory specs. Forget the lube...geckos dont need it ;) Only shafties |
