  • I've had a few issues testing the changes made in the previous video mostly due to me not doing a great job of plastic welding. I've revised the approach and hopefully, it'll be better but listen in and find out why.
    I also cover off some wheel, body and shock changes I've gone through and provide a bit more information on "alpha angle" and why some people will lay-down their shocks.
    Let me know in the comments if you agree or not?

    Thank you,, you said a lot more than I have heard on other channels about how changing shock angles, how droop setup works, or don't work.. great job you precisely with detail explained everything you were talking about... I very much appreciated that.

      Oh wow, that's awesome feedback, thank you! I'm actually writing some more content around how to tune suspension for different purposes. E.g. stopping bouncing or unwanted weight transfer. Hopefully it'll be just as useful!

    I really enjoy your videos, thankyou so much! Where can i find your front lower rear link mounts? I want more anti dive in the front but im in Australia and cannot locate angled links like you used. Cheers.

      eBay or AliExpress, search for “shock key”

    This truck is the definition of a "ghetto rig" haha , but I bet it out climbs rigs 10x more expensive!

    Old skol mods "RULR" rear upper link riser for anti squat🍻

      @JustScalin  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yup, works great for scx but on TRx can be awkward due to portals and link mounts

    So moving the rear links on the chassis side higher increases anti-squat?

    • @JustScalin
      @JustScalin  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Depending on the trucks other geometry, centre of gravity and link setup it did in this occasion. On some trucks it might reduce it
