    Kevin, I enjoy your approach to this hobby. It is different. Don't you think Massive shock/suspension flex is not always an advantage? What are your thoughts. I know you like to experiment. Thanks again.

    @robertrosson1990 Před 6 lety

    You could adjust the spring stiffness if there's adjustment nuts on those shocks I have 130mm on my wraith and they do have adjusters on them man talk about having some serious flex that they have the 130 inabable my wrath to crawl over some pretty gnarly rocky trails.

    @MatthewFant Před 7 lety

    It won't be too long, and a company will release a set of mounts, essentially like you just made, for long travel shocks. shockingly, that worked really, really well. not bad at all!

    • @albertellwyn4891

  • @DelTalkoh

    It seems to me like they're to soft have you updated these with heavier oil and some stiffer springs?

  • @dadbodgaming8474
    @dadbodgaming8474 Před 5 lety

    Soooo what did you change in the front? I did this with same shocks and made same brkts but the front driveshaft comes out at full flex. Well I put a longer 3rd link rod end and now it soesnt fall out but gets all kinda wedged.

  • @fatelmo
    @fatelmo Před 3 lety

    Hi, fantastic modification i must say and I love the longer throw coming from the suspension. However, I encounter another problem. My front wheel will rub the body shell on full right when reversing. And is only when reversing right full lock, left is fine.
    Wonder if you have any suggestion or recommendation? Many thanks in advance.

    • @barrelbum1016

    I'm going to have to watch the whole thing but you seem educated enough to know your stuff. Searching for more Flex isn't good just for Just about every crawling situation. Let me watch the full video but messing with the stock ride height and lcg hurts performance on my nasty trails

      Wow! I checked it out and it looks absolutely sweet! Thanks for the recommendation! It will be pretty expensive for me, but once I get a job (I am only 15 and turning 16) with a few weeks' work I can afford it!

    • @davidholden2658
      @davidholden2658 Před 6 lety +1

      Austin Younts I think he is using the great black sharks on there they have optimal travel and can easily dive to deeper depths in the ocean. Just kidding bro he said he was using a type of hpi crawler shock I don't know the model
