I have nothing to do with selling or building them. I simply took these spy photos.

I do know that RCP is the distributer for them though. I'd bet with it being so early in the design and prototype process no one knows yet what they will cost.

Wow... Now I am unsure of what to build...a 2.2 or clod?! I have parts coming to do both (but don't have the funds to do both...)

I think price will be the determining factor for me on whether I build a super or 2.2!

It will be interesting to see how well the suspension setup works with a drive shaft rig verse the clod rig. I wonder if there will be twist with the full droup setup.

I don't think so, since the suspension it "bottomed out", I think it will act similar to a torsion rig which I haven't really experienced any torque roll with.

But I guess until we see a video, we wont know for sure.

Yeah I agree Dez.

With torsion though you have one "piece" of truck. With any form of mult-link it's like joing several "pieces" together so it's natural you're going to have some movement.

One would think that you would only experience tourqe roll in really bound up situations though.

If you don't have is setup correctly you get a TON of torque twist. Yes the left rear shock is bottomed out but it will pull the right rear shock out about 1/2 the stroke. That's why you have to run the internal springs to keep the shock compressed. With the right internal spring, suspension geometery, and shock oil you can tune most of the twist out, but it's not as easy as it looks like it would be.

And the hustler looks freakin awesome, wish i could come check it out today.
