Yeti links on TH?

[Neal3000]

I want to lengthen the wheelbase of my car, mainly because i think it will help it climb hills better. if i use Yeti links, will it change my shock angle? I’m guessing that i will need heavier spring because of the increased leverage of longer trailing arms? And is a Yeti driveshaft the proper length with these arms? Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Blue Monkey RC used to offer a +1 MIP driveshaft kit that worked with the Yeti Trailing arms. That is what I used on my TH with the extendended WB. I believe many guys have used the Yeti MIP shafts as well. It may be they had to slightly modify them, but I cannot remember what was required. You might check out bilinvic’s thread. He did this recently and puts together excellent build threads.

I don’t see why not

Yeti links and stock shocks work fine.

May need to increase spring rate and oil thickness to help handling.
