txt links

[jordanator62]

just finished cutting the chassis on my txt, and decided that i need to lengthen the wheelbase. i cant remember who it was, or where i found it, but someone used the shafts from arrows to lengthen theirs. if anyone has some good cheap ways to make some extended links, fill me in!!!!!

I'm getting my TXT-1 next week and will make a serious crawler out of it. Since I haven't received it yet I have nothing to compare too.

What size ball ends are most of you using? I've already ordered the link material but need to know about the ball ends. I've seen the dubro ends in 4-40 & 6-32. I'll also make the steering links with them as well.

will these work or will the 4-40 ends be fine?

At High Rocks every type of setup works... small amount of suspension travel or way too much. Just make some bumpstops so your links don't hit your shafts, booty fab it! Trust me, my rigs are all pure booty fab and it just makes them that much more fun
