I had this brain child and I let my intrusive thoughts win. I took the rear gatekeeper suspension and swapped it under my trailrunner chassis. I left it stock length of 324mm wheelbase. Also happened to have a raptor hardbody laying around that was 324mm wheelbase. I left the gearing stock and reworked the geometry of the rear suspension. I need to reinstall the sway bar on the rear but for now it runs a full droop rear suspension. Front suspension is fully stock with springs and fluid. Rear shocks are angled forward and have the springs and fluid removed. It sits correctly and jumps quite well. It now runs a reedy 3300 kv motor from a long abandoned dr10 drag car and another abandoned esc out of i dont know what lol. Runs on 3s and is a fun little ripper
