Make sure the shock piston/shaft don't hit the cap before the shock bottoms out. If it does you'll need to use up travel limiters otherwise the piston/shaft will punch the caps right off.

Thanks for the heads up! This car is going to be ran, for sure. Ill also be making more once i finish this one. Should have the clear shocks in a week or two I think.

so i sketched out a few ideas and did a lil bit of research before settling on the final design.
one of the most important details that i wanted was to be able to...

Greg, I just though tof this, but you did turn you diff the correct direction inside the case?-when in mid motor
the adjuster side of the diff needs to be on the same side as the input shaft, otherwise your diff will loosen it self as you run
I can't remember enough about it to search on it. who made that cool chassis fabricated from the g10 plate, mid motor, long wheel base, with gold pan parts trimmed and bent to form the chassis stiffeners. It was first photo'ed at a race, then the...
