So eliminating a whole link won't effect the truck. I figured it would be a 3 link kind of like the AX10 were you still used both links.
Price will be announced next week.
A 3-link is the most efficient method. A 4-link will not handle the forces as well, as a matter of physics. Properly triangulated or not, it will not work as well.
all im saying is it works on my honcho . . . maybe its just that the wraith has wider axles?
That is a wishbone style 3-link. This system uses a panhard to keep the axle centered instead of triangulation from a 4-link. The panhard and drag link follow the same arc, this is why you don't get bump steer with a properly setup 3-link.
A few shots from under and around the 3-link. I used a rod end ball as a spacer in the upper link mount.
Interesting design. I am wondering why they didnt build something off of the lower link/shock mount so that the pivot ball is mounted the same as all the other joints. That would remove possible binding issues. That would also remove axle clearance issues you get when you put the collar on the axle. I am not saying its a bad design just saying there is room for improvement.
Harley is this by any chance the GoPro HD your talking about. Or is their a smaller size for the Helicopter, and or if you wanted to put it on one of the vehicle's to video record while you crawl
It is the GoPro HD 960. I did a crawler mounted SD version a couple years ago.

how are you mounting your GoPro? with interior it fits in but not with any of the mounts. I guess to get a good fit you'd have to take out the interior?
That's pretty sweet Harley "thumbsup". I don't know if I'm seeing thing's or not but watching the video do you have it mounted also with a servo or something casue I thought i was seeing it move as you drove your truck on different angle's.
