I think it was ten years ago I started this project and then it has been on the shelf for some time. I really wanted to build something different with this truck so I set out a couple years ago building a four link suspention out of stock axles. It actually worked really well however it still looked pretty cumbersome overall. I twisted of the little drive ball on the front axle just doing a bit of rock crawling. So I picked up some 5mm SS rod and made a front axle for it and it was tough enough to withstand the stress of turning without a differential. So on the shelf again. last year I received a traxxas trx4 as a gift and it got me thinking of this project. I made some changes ......For next time.
