Default Convert my NN to a droop type suspension??

Since my NN is still a roller after I robbed a few parts for my pimp cane build,I was thinking it might be cool to put shorter shocks on it and set it up like a hustler chassis!!!Anyone see any draw backs???

The only problem I had was making the shocks stand up straight and the lower links flat.you could make shock mounts to fix that though

I'm pretty sure the hustler just uses standard 4" shocks, I've seen the hot bodies non-threaded body ones used. Here's a link,

The Hustler uses Hot Bodies shocks...

I have my NN chassis setup with a droop suspension. Using stock plastic Traxxas T-Maxx shocks, 70w oil (would like 100w).
