Hey I like your axle link mounts  Though it looks like you have something else up your sleeve for the top links.That is a really good use of the maxx braces. They look real nice as frame rails. Project should look real nice. Is it going to be an all out comp rig, or designed more as a trail truck? |

sweet set up.... VERY ORIGINAL thats what i like.... one suggestion... brace where the links connect to the axle... i could just see the links getting ripped out of the axle and that would be no good.. oh and definetly aluminum servo plate and mounts.... no deflection when steering is always better  |

BTW you really need to get ready for this  Can't wait to see it finished.......so get them shocks mounted & paint the body. How much did you narrow it? I've heard ppl use the peice that was cut out to reinforce the connection AFTER the two halves have been painted. |

Did you brace it? I've already rolled my rig a pretty decent amount with my braced link setup and no problems yet.
