Looks great! I like the high-clearance lower link mounts/links. Just make sure that if you go this route, that the driveshafts won't drag the rocks with the links being up higher.

seperate shock mount plates are there fore letting the shock to be mounted closer to the senter of the car in the top without having the shock body to hit the chassis.. and it gives the oppertunety to make othe shock mounts without making new chassi, if i want...


WRMorrison <---- the man behind the lover link mounts... :-P thanks fore the pic`s.. good job thinking of the driveshafts might drag the rocks... i must look in to that... maby next year... hehe...


The bent lower links was an mod. made after an tip from Wild Trial, he`s here on rc crawler but i`ve been chatting with him at an norwegian forum..
Thanx man..


The driveshafts are comming up..

Pole I didn't think of driveshafts , but put them on
and just make the lower with some less bent.
It's bether to have the links drag to the rocks, than the driveshafts.

Keep up the good work.

Why dont you have the shock mounts built into the chassis, instead of having them bolted on?

Sweet chassis. I love it.

I might add a couple of extra mounting holes for your 4link it will give you a little adjustability.

I added red holes for an example.

what is the width of the mid section? if you ran a rotated tranny the motors might hit the chassis top mounts ... maybe it would be best to add another modular mounting option like those for the shocks.
