| Ascender Rear Leaf Spring Conversions at GCM
Hiya! With all this new stuff going onto Ascender platforms, our scale trucks are taking another notch up with these Leaf Spring kits from gcmracing.ca, shown in our Ascender truck section! All the Leaf Spring Kits are finished in Black anodize and we have the option to add a Tamiya Leaf spring pair to either the Stage 1 or the Stage 2 All the kits and parts come with the needed hardware to assemble, and the fit is just right! Check out all the bits here at this link: >>GCM Ascender mounts, bumpers, leaf kits, and more<< Stage 1 Video Install: Stage 2 Video Install: |

great idea just a question is why are the leafs so far out on the axle tube. i think loonybin has leafs front and back on his using gmade sawback parts and four shackle mounts looks realy scale and cool

Probably a dumb question, but will this take away some off the torque flex? Only reason i havent bouth one yet. Looks awsome btw. |

More great stuff from GCM. Since I can't bring myself to neuter my first Ascender (the links with cantilevers just work too darned well), I guess I'll have to build a second and leaf it, lol. Good thing I just cleared out some room in the garage. |

Anyone running these yet? I'm tempted to order a stage 1 set but I've been happy with how my truck is running.

I know a couple guys are, but I've not tried them. What's your current setup? I just searched and your thread doesn't say current setup either? Ordered an Ascender |

Haha, I'm running Vaterra aluminum shocks. That's my only suspension upgrade.

| Re: Ascender Rear Leaf Spring Conversions at GCM
GCM is sold out of the shock relocation and the Stage 2 kit. Anyone know if the stage 3 is the only one they will have now? I am thinking the longer inboard mounted shocks would give a bit more flex with the leaves than the new kit allows. please chime in if you have any experience with both.
