Make that 30- I needed a poo

Well, I reckon they would mount fine really- the angles are alright, not too laid down, pretty much how most 1/8 things look I'd say. Only minor concern would be the fat springs rubbing on the inside edges of the upper a-arms- cant check that as I dont have any to play with, but at worst a tiny bit of filing for clearance might be needed, no biggy.

To soften up the suspension a little I made a few slight changes to the truck recently; swapped over 4 of the RC8B shocks for the 4... whatever they are from the TXT-1; not a huge amount of difference but the Gmaxx does feel a bit more flexible now, not quite so stiff as a plank of wood. Looks a little odd since the shocks are different diamters and lengths ( ~5mm total difference, nothing major so far as effects my driving abilities ), but it should handle a bit better along with the new shoes- Axial terrorizers.

Saddly the weather has taken a turn for the worse- not cold and windy anymore, just raining/ drizzling; must be nearly summer
