looks like you have a death grip on the top of them shocks. might wanna do a shock top mod or make some standoffs to free them up and let them flex a bit. "thumbsup"

Thanks for the suggestion, already backed the screw off a bit and it makes it better and took a washer off the front, got some goodies coming in from RPP and TCS Crawlers should be hear Friday or Saturday. "thumbsup"

next thing on my list will be installing electronics and and putting oil in the shocks and the new goodies.
 
M.I.P. drive shafts showed up today in the mail looks like I'll be spendin some time putting those togeher. On a side note losend the shock screws up some and took 1 washer off the front shocks and added 30 wt. shock oil and mounted the electronics

I would really ditch the aluminum spacers and use silicone or rubber tubing. It will allow more movement of the shock tops. A thin piece (1/8" to 3/16th") between the chassis & shock, and another piece to the outside captured with a flat washer.
