PRO 4 build........

[bob1961]

got the front end links made up, got the camber links pretty darn close to parallel with the lower A arms....

I seen there was bout an 1/8" gap between the front diff halves and thought HMMM....so I made a alum camber link plate that bolted right in there and the diff halves are tight as they should be....

front end tube work and bumper done, notice the curved piece going from center bottom of the windshield going to lower frame to stiffen that area up....

might seem to be sitting a bit off but I don't have anything adjusted yet....those shocks are losi 4" crawler shock that I did the rod end mod to the top and they have a length of 4-5/8"....I just have them wire tied in place to see what, where I need to adjust stuff yet...at full compression the bottom of the chassis still has 1" ground clearance so it will never touch the ground on a landing....

can any body point me in a direction for shocks....I'm looking for at least a 4" shock that I can get a boat load of different springs for adjusting spring weight, thx....

Proline Powerstroke Slash rears and 2 tuning kits. Lots of spring options.

Learn to use Imgur. It's not the most intuitive, but I did create this how-to guide to help.

Imgur - Embedding and Posting Photos

Image hosts are going paid left and right so a lot of people have been moving to Imgur. It's not the most intuitive site and organizing albums isn't the easiest, but it is completely free. There have been lots of issues and questions on this forum about posting and embedding images from Imgur...
