the wheel base is 17 1/2, the ground clearance is 3 3/4, the diff clearance is 2 1/4, and we dont have wideners on it yet. just the ttr 12-14mm adapts. just turned the stock tmaxx rims around. shes a stickler on what her tires were. so we bought the k-rocks from imex(cause she liked em), so since they arent 40 series like mine we are buyin the maximizer 3/4 in offset beadlocks and the integy 12-14 mm wideners. not a bad truck for tinkerin in the hobby shop for day

I have looked for the Savaga shocks, they are longer then the E Savage shock. I think thats no solution, i think i go try to fit the shocks at the lower links. |

And a small update on the under links, they are now 8mm alu. They are now large enough to mount the shockmounts.  |

excav8rguy What is the wheel base and the ground clearance ? And what kind of wheel wideners are you using ??[/quote] excav8rguy I cant wait to get my TLT chassis Clod working ...it will be my first ever crawler...so I could not wait  sorry to bother you I know you are busy with making such nice rigs ... I would be grateful if you tell me which parts I should purchase or make to have similar suspension as the one on your daughters crawler... At the moment I have ; 2x Clod Axles (all stock) 2x TLT chassis plates 2x Blue Bird BMS-630MG super torque servos 1x Futaba MC330CR ESC but I am totally lost :?for the rest of build ...I have decided to follow your pictures as to try to achieve a similar build to it!  What length/size are the links?Should I make my own?Same questions for the steering system links?Which shocks?Anything vital to the build that I have missed to ask?Please help a desperate man from falling to his knees:-( to crawl!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
