really ingenious build you have there, however your video demostrates the pitfalls of too much suspenion travel aswell as to soft suspension, also the lack of wheel speed (power). a crawler only needs 45-60* of axle twist, any more like yours and you fall into holes and hinder your self, also at several point more power would have hopped you up onto rocks, where slow crawling cant always do the job. great build and a azing design in the suspension, but I have sneaky suspicion that since then it doesnt flex quite as much or at least you use less kf its articulation.

Vance wanless, there are a lot of buggies set up this way with the weight ratio that are very capable Riggs. I ran those tires before they are unforgivably hard. Inner and outer beadlocks with 6 lb of air and they still suck . That buggy would have to weigh twice as much as it does to make them bulge and bite with only 8 to 10 pounds of air. That's just a bad tire choice for that rig. In the low gearing just makes it that much worse
