Looking Fantastic and all but.. Shouldn't that swaybar link be twisted the other way? The way you have it looks like it might limit articulation. | |

| Re: Carpetfuzz's VS4-10 PRO I see what you see. I did this to get around the shock. The rear sway bar does limit the travel even with the straight rod ends. This is going to be all redone as I have changed the shocks and they are bigger and rub the sway bar.

| Re: Carpetfuzz's VS4-10 PRO I removed some of the inner plastic on the shock towers. Sanded out a spot on the side of the tower for the pre load adjusting ring. I already had the spot on the side done to fit the SSD shocks. Some material inside the tower was removed to fit the SSD again. I just needed to remove a little bit more as the Element shocks are bigger diameter than the SSD. I will get some pictures up tomorrow the truck is out in the garage.

A what brand of bronze/brass ball links that you have on the SSD shocks? My SSD shocks came with chrome ball links and they don’t fit the axle mounts on the VS4-10: Vanquish ball links are shorter. I did swap ball links from the Incisión shocks but they appear to be slightly smaller diameter. (SSD ball links diameter is larger than Incision ones) Any help would be appreciated 😎

Here’s what I used They fit in the SSD rod ends. All I did to get them to fit in the VP axles was file down the sides a little bit on each side till they slipped into place. If you have any more questions please ask away. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | |

Hey Mark. After you sent me the pictures and videos I had to come check out your build thread. I really like how this turned out. the d44's are a great touch.

| Re: Carpetfuzz's VS4-10 PRO I know. You would think that they would have an optional motor plate. I have thought about getting an extra one taking it to a local machine shop to see there is a way to remove some material just for the motor.
