I want aluminum links

[SerpentCT4S]

I want to upgrade my links to aluminum ones on my scx10 Jeep.

I have seen some people make their own. For the price and time to make my own, I think I will just go and buy a set instead of making them.

Which ones do you guys recommend, Axial or something else?

Sorry. I have a scx10 Jeep.

ckrccrawlers and rpphobby both have aluminum links for $59.99

Got a link?

Will those kits replace all links on my truck? Front, rear and steering?

For just a little more than the Axial link kit, you can get stainless Steel links from R2J. He is a vendor here on RCC. They are stronger and less likely to catch on rocks than aluminum.

They work even better than they look.

For that much.. one could get brake line/tubing, allthread and few bags of rod ends to make links for 3-4 crawlers.

Thanks for the info and links.

I just sent him a PM.

Time and money? I think I have maybe. 16$ and an hour or so into my custom stainless links

The rest of the money I spent on beer for durring and after. And some whiskey and some wings

Amen bro! People think it's just too hard to make them. 8/32 all thread, 1/4 brake line, revo ends and a half hour of time is all it takes.

Titanium, strong, light and slides over rocks better than aluminum. I've also bent aluminum.

X10! "thumbsup"

If you're feeling crafty and want metal link's then save some $ by making them yourself...

If you're willing to spend $ on link's, don't settle for aluminum (or stainless which is softer than normal steel and may break at the threads), go for broke and invest in Titanium... last set you will ever buy! 8)

Of the 2 set's Natedog linked too, I like the Blue Monkey's because the lower suspension links are bent to provide better ground clearance.

I am kinda surprised Vanquish has not stepped up and introduced a pre-bent link set for us Scx10 owners yet... they offer a bent link set for the Wraith...? Come on Vanquish! These would sell like hotcakes ;-) ETA: I just posted this suggestion in the V.P. New idea thread

Made mine for my Honcho last night. All suspension links and steering cost about $40 and about 2 hours of my time. Turned out really nice.

NOTErized!

40$ really?
Revo links cost me 9$
All thread cost me 2.50$ at Home Depot
And a piece of brake line cost me 5.49$ at car quest
So. 18$
I got aluminum steering upgrade when I got the truck. So you would need another bag of revo ends but I have plenty of leftover rod and b line so even then it's under 30$. With plenty of left over ball ends

I don't doubt you can spend 40$. But you don't have to

Ti links are sexy. But way out of my price range
