Default Converting Vaterra Ascender Kit 302mm to 265mm TJ Jeep

I have a Vaterra Ascender Kit painted blue with a wheelbase of 302mm and on this page first time builder Vaterra Ascender 1986 Blazer and me adding the jeep body for an interior Jeep interior in my Vaterra Ascender Blazer K5 Kit but now I am going to convert my 302mm to as low as I can go. Using the link reference here Ascender Wheel Base & Link Reference Guide I have used only 61mm and 66mm links and I have changed my rod ends to Traxxas short rod ends and can save 4mm each about so I am down from 278mm to 265 and I think an can I can a few more to get closer to 260mm https://www.amainhobbies.com/traxxas...-tra1942/p2815 as you can see I have TJ Jeep body and the wheelbase for this is normally 250mm and I am can you change to in the next few weeks. Hopefully for the next comp is 20th Jan.

now some pics are with the standard 110mm swampers and some are with 100mm scale cheap ebay tyres maximum scale size 106mm.
