well what would you like to know suoer??? my truck is a very agressive crawler thanks to alot of thing I've done. if your truck is stock i would lock front and rear diffs to start with..... then if it has stock suspension only use 4 shocks (8 is too much resistance to flex properly) and go to a lighter weight oil in the shocks, i use 30-35. also LOWER your gearing!! this makes a big difference... i run 72s with a 9p. another big thing is tires... you want agressive tires that are soft and will flex over rocks to give you maximum traction... i use losi lst's with maximizer beadlocks... see how far this gets you and then pm me and i tell other things that help imensly.... traction wise and run time wise...

also thanks for the link nitro thats a sweet setup i ordered one to see how good it is!!

well keep us posted on it bro, thought about ordering one for my T-Maxx awhile back but it rolls over too easily now and 4WS would make it 10x worse..........LOL

well how fast ya gonna dude?? I'm only goin like 3mph so i figered it might work...lol

 

[Nitrobuzzard]

well my Maxx is good for 40mph (per Traxxas) so 4WS is a bit much.......LOL......having rear steer is more "usable" on a crawler.....only thing it would be good for on my maxx is show.........
