Default getting more flex (tlt) ball ends?

ive tried stock shocks, stampede shocks, running axle mounted, link mounted, and canti mounted, can only get 70 degrees max. im running 14 1/2in end to end of tire, gonne extend that to 16-17. but i was thinking maybe the stock tamiya ball ends just dont have much rotation, is there a better ball end>?

70 deg is more than enough unless your looking for mall flex.

I use traxxas balls in the tamiya ball ends. The traxxas balls kind of float in there and they are very free to move around. I noticed both the tamiya and traxxas ones are pretty stiff, but join them, and you get some nice results.
