Sorry for putting this on again so soon, but on the advice of a great person and someone worth listening too (7.2inchdriver) so you can blame him. I have lifted the body.

Front: raise the front body mount with two tubes (spacers) that was left over in the kit on one of the trees. (Sorry, don’t remember what one)

Rear: used TLT-1 shocks, simple as that.


I used a set of Tamiya’s two piece wheels, and anybody that has used them before will know that they are a little wider than the original wheels, so they was hitting the wheel arches, but not now, all is ok with plenty of clearance and a good bit of articulation. But it tends too cock its front right wheel in the air on fast pull away.

Very easy, quick and effective fix, many thanks again Christian, until your suggestion I was going to go back to the original wheels.

Great modification witch the TLT 1 shocks.end a tip too 7.2inchdriver, you can give the truck more articulation you make the shocks for the rear axle not behind the axle. then you have more articulation.
