    I forgot to mention one of the most important modifications that we did. Change every shock to 60 wt shock oil. This supports the weight of the vehicle and body better and allows it to climb and do more technical obstacles.

    I just built a Capra and put 35wt front and 50wt in the rear. It’ll wheelie in reverse but not going forward. It really limits the squat.

    Got Red Skull driving my CJ(9”MarvelLegendFigure). I trimmed the lower seat cushion down to 1/8th” and lowered the back cushion’s upper screw to the bottom hole. Also mounted the spare tire inside the back on a angle to match the roll cage. Relocated the battery in front of the rear axle. Also made wheel-wells out of cheap microwaveable breakfast bowls. Kicking some bumper ideas around this week but overall I’m satisfied with its capability. Appreciate this video, your channel and your demeanor. :-)

    Very nice review as always. I have a heavy "stock modified" ex86110, the one like this but 313mm wheelbase. ESC is "ok" it's a hw 1040, change motor for 21t with 14t pinion 48dp, nice to crawl and nice speed with 3s. Original pinion is brass, I really recomend to change for steel one in run in mud. Battery place is (with removing front ujpperlink) the most important thing to do, after few trials, the best performance is just behind transfer case, transversal. you need to move electronics and remove box to do this, but you can keep also your body. Honestly after more than 40Km I think these are the "most sense" needed upgrades for this car and "moderate to hard" use. Whit this you have a vey capable crawler. ex86110 tyres are Louise ardent, so good ones. The weak point of this crawler are laterals, due to the elevated motor, for this i found that a little harder and drop shocks helps me enought. I would like you to try the 313mm version, but nice to see this. PD: Redcad chasis make the same flexion. Im not really sure about how bad it is, I really think it give some flex, in a good way. Only with a very very good shocks set up you could prefer a more rigid chasis. What do you feel ?

I think your viewers would like to see if you can show a performance difference on the bench or rocks as is with 4 links and unnecessary panhard rod... and then with the extra upper link removed with panhard re-installed to get the proper geometry and articulation of a true cms set up? Of course I'm going off photos on bangood website showing that this is how the front suspension is currently on this vehicle? Cheers mate

You get like 1,5cm of vertical travel in a wheell with the rest 3 on the ground, from 11.5 to 13cm in a 313mm wheebase. I also re designed my panhard for a almost horizontal one, as the steering arm with servo under plate.

    Some people have enough play money to buy upgrade build have built anything or as much as they want. Other people like myself probably couldn't justify spending the amounts of money that it would take to build a high quality high end rig. Some people even have the equipment or the resources to build or create something according to limitations. The skill and craftmanship knowledge engineering skills problem solving skills it takes to improve make more efficient more competative machine is much more interesting and gratifying than finding out which bolt on upgrades will work the best. This goes for cosmetics as well.of taking a more affordable
