| Not so low TXT
Well I've changed a few things. I changed the stock TXT ballends to 3mm Dubro's drill out and tapped to 4mm. That lengthened the WB a bit. I also moved the upper shock mounts inside the frame and further from the tranny. rig stats have been updated |

Looks good as usual. The inboard shock mount allow a little more flex? A little less bind? Both? Neither? |

OK OK, you try building a tube bumper for a blazer, a tubular front clip for a Land Cruiser, a scale buggy, fixing my 1:1 Jeep, playing Insane, making the woman happy, starting a business, and being your tube whore. it takes time. Oh not to mention being a dad.

How about you come over watch the boy this week and I'll finish the buggy. Bring rubber gloves his diapers can be really nasty. Thanks Badger it's going to help me out a lot. Oh and I ordered you $53 worth of tubing last night. J/K I ordered you some cro-mo and some 3/16" stainless tubing for the scale bumper. I think we can silver solder it. and it won't need to be painted. |

sorry EP, i didn't see that. more flex. but you can't go too far in. it will not be stable nor would the shocks be in the axle path.

How's the twist? (I've been not using springs lately, all droop travel, but it's time to change.) |

it's only noticeable climbing a steep incline. I'm going to use stiffer oil and maybe springs.
