I will send you a file for the stock Axial chassis, you should draw up how you cut it and have it CNC'd OR I know this guy that can cut CF too Really that thing looks sweet as hell. I always love to see 3 link suspensions. You should see the panhard mounts that Dinky has | |

If you want, draw that thing up.....or send it to Harley if you don't know how....JUST kidding. Send me the file and I will cut it out of CF or Aluminum. Of course I will have to cut an extra for myself J |

I love the 3 link as well, however the front is turning out to be a real PITA. I had no steering with the shocks on the outside of the chassis so I had to move them inside the plates. On top of that the servo is there so it leaves no room for the panhard to function correctly I will get it figured out, just more work than I wanted. I cant go 4 link with the chassis because the motor side doesnt have any material for the upper links Haha nice, I will see if I can come up with a quick sketch on a napkin to send over to you CF all the way! | |

Few more updates. I got it running tonight. All thats left to do is get a decent battery to power this thing. And find a place to put it I have a feeling I will probably switch to smaller tires but I am going to try these first. The electronics are overkill but I pulled them from another rig and it made it easy. The TLT body ended up being perfect too!! Lots of pics. |

Looks great Brandon. You did a great job with the chassis and suspension. Articulation looks good. Curious to see how you like the panhard bar. Good job. |

Looks great! I might have to do something similar or just be like everyone else and run the little Losi. Can't wait to give it a good thrashing!

B Sketch on a napkin is fine. Just don't use crayons like Harley does. This thing is really coming together. Nice job. J |
