GPM 4-link kit. Most people here go for the JunFac 4-link kit.

The junfac shaft that I use is 107-142mm derb helped me out alot with this topic thanks derb!

The link kit is GPM. I would recommend the junfac kit though they seem to be better quality parts.

Great pics mate, you've got some good angles and it looks real in a few of them. Also, are those the Rover tyres? My mate ran a set on his CC01 and they were amazing for how small they are.

Derb the tyres are proline 1.9" chisel tyres. They worked really well. The cc01 went every where my scx10 has gone in the past. Just takes a little more skills to get it there which I like.

Sweet, I'm planning on getting a set of 2.2 chisels for my Gmade crawler when it comes in. They sound like a really good compound/pattern combo.

Nice rig dude. Setup is very similar to derbs and my CC01. I saw a set of those tyres last week they are exactly the same as Rovers!

How come you went with the super short wheel base?

I built mine to suit the FJ40 body and the instructions tell you to mount it with the plastic plates that sit over the screw holes you used, and the ones 20mm behind them
