Need help with widening my 2wd stampede.

[Jpslash667]

I wanted to widen the front of my traxxas stampede, can I just get rpm rear a arms and put them on the front? Or is it a little more complex then that??

Rear arms is fine. You will need longer steering links at least, probably camber links too.

Run rear offset wheels all around for more narrow, or front offset for even wider.
I have factory rear traxxas on my front, and tmaxx links for my steering.

Not sure, as I'm not a Traxxas expert/guru, but as @pug said, apparently you can use rear arms in the front, but you could also run wider tires in the front or all around for consitent handling. Axle wideners/extenders may also work, but I'm not sure, because I've never actually seen the front axle stubs of a RWD RC.

You may be able to use front rpm offset compensating a arms for the slash 2wd here. I’m not completely sure about it though.

Thanks for the tips everyone, I might just do the rear a arms in the front with the t Maxx links and change the offsets on my trenches!

Could you possibly help me find the part number for the tmaxx parts, I can't find anything

I can't tell what he's using for the rear a arms, it's got 5 adjustment holes for the shock. That's not stock is it?

Not sure honestly. I just seen the video and thought I would post it for you.

Looking at my stampede, it has multiple mounting holes for shocks in rear, 2 in the factory short arms.

I'm not syre the model number on the links, Ill have to measure and let you know.

I did this 10 years ago, and my old hobby shop would let me walk behind the counter for my parts.

I did find this article wuth camber part numbers.

Interesting I thought the front and rear on the Pede was the same length.

Thanks for everyone's opinion!!! I ended up going with the 2wd slash lcg chassis . So, essentially, I now have a wider monster slash!!! And I can use my old fox body for it!
