2 of my Rustler chassis? I still have each one of those I made.

Thanks for all the comments, guys!

What's_nitro? is right, an aftermarket or custom chassis (he is also correct about the material of mine) is required, with an alteration of a couple holes (in this case, 4 new holes were drilled). Also, I had to swap the left/right rear arms to match the new positioning of the shocks, so the arm marked "L" is on the right, and vice versa.

Takedown, surely I can't be the first person with mod1 on a Revo slipper in a Rustler (but maybe the first with this setup on a MGT spur), so you're more than welcome to use it! There are two reasons for why I did this - low motor RPM (it's geared 20/46 after all) and a 5mm motor shaft.

From driving it so far, it actually seems like the rear doesn't have enough weight on it since the rear diff diffs out so much, even though it will wheelie/flip over without any difficulty. Hopefully thinner shock oil in the rear will help this. But there is way more steering with this setup!
