I like it, the shock angle isn't ideal. If you could stand them up a little more vertically it be better. How's the torque twist? Call it "Block Crawler." :-P |

When I look at the pictures I think, "Shredder". Probably because of the pointy part by the shock mount.

yes make your shock more vertical mount em on the upper peice where the cantis went stock.. that will help with twist and make it a hell of a lot more stable.. ps name - how about Rice Burner lol jp ryan |

I made several mounting holes in the part that you cut off. My truck doesnt have stupid flex like yours but i bet its a hell of alot more stable. Maybe get some new chassis plates and start over?

While I was signing up for boulder battle 4 this past sunday I had to pick a name for my truck. Based on the past performances I named my truck "Flipper". It used to like to flip on its back and sideways off stuff but not really anymore. My truck may not roll over like it did before but the name will always be the same.
