    I think he used to to reduced twisting of the axles. Like forward and back roll. I think...

    Looking good for sure, I need to work on my rear links some more still when I have the stuff arrive at the hobby store. Have you done a test run at all with it yet?

    yes i have and it runs great, will be putting a new power plant in it soon to get more juics out of it. it climbs and sidehills great. im running xr rims in the back to help with the turning radius, the different offset seems to help.

    correct sir, i could have run a solid link, but i wanted to keep the axles articuation. they still twist a bit but i can live with it.

    i made it. using two axial axles. a little trimming, and thats it. the rear axle has to be run upside down to make it work. thats why the links look all crazy

    well with the trail run tommoro i thought id hook something up. my one off Pedro customs traier, and wouldnt ya know the wraith sits very nice up there. i wrapped some 1.9 baja claws onto some axial 2.2 rims for a different look. it will make getting my gear to the trail head a little easier. also made some progress today with the truck, light kit installed, fog lights in and put my dual motor plate in with 2 55t lathe motors, so i got all kinds of power on tap!
