Tamiya CC01 Stroke Extension Kit - BLIX RC Parts

[Griffbolt 15]

Hello, I am here to share a new cost effective way to increase suspension travel on the CC01 Chassis. The  has been proven to be well designed and to last long. Comes with everything you need to install even spare parts included! Its a fraction of the cost of any of the TAMIYA CC01 Extension Link Kits with 100% of the functionality!

Nice.

I don't mean to be disrespectful to your product. But I have tried using a stroke extension and didn't like it at all. Removed it right away after testing because it feels so artificial and wobbly. So instead, I came up with installing this. 

It allows 100-110mm shocks to be installed. A lot of suspension travel and very easy to install. The mount also comes with several mounting threaded holes for more adjusting options. No wobbling or slopping. It's made of aluminum which makes it sturdy and durable and only cost $10 for the pair.

thank you, i always love to get feedback so I can improve the design, I can see where you are coming from, it would make it very unstable during off road use, maybe I could implement a way to put a little tension in the system. Great idea you did on yours looks tough and durable

Thanks.

But I'd like to correct you on the stability during off-road with mine. It's very stable and have no problems running it on dirt, rocky terrain, mud or gravel. I have several trials on the mount placement before I finally came up this way. I've also redesigned the front shock mounts to allow longer dampers. Used 3mm carbon fiber board and created holes for the shock to go through. Maybe you can come up with something similar to accommodate longer dampers for the CC-01.

No i was talking about stability with my system, But that is a very nice rig you got there, i think it would be cool to create a product that allows the installation of 100-110mm shocks on the CC01, there is probably no way getting around cutting into the chassis because it would be nice for someone who wants a more user friendly install.
