The truck looks nice, but that is such a terribly poor design for those rear links. They're going to get destroyed so fast.

na, they are heavy enough to support the truck, and are a nessesity, the ammount of torque going to the tires made it almost impossible to control when going through the gears with a lot of throttle, with them on there, it drives straight as an arrow, they have been on for about a year, whats so terriable about em

No no, I'm talking about when they get hit. Because that low, the WILL get hit. Plus they should be mounted WAYYYYYYYYYYY farther back. They're absurdly long. Not to mention you don't really even need them.. Little rear links like that just band aid the problem. Ditch the leaves and link it.

Don't worry, he doesn't have anything nice to say about anything anyone has done, unless he did it himself :/



I love the truck! Looks awesome!

Your truck looks sweet. I wish I had a 12v! What kind of rear bumper do you have?
