Scx 10 integy aluminum links
So went down to my lhs and picked upa set of front and rear lower links and also the upper three links (pack comes with 2 three link ) so did the frontend no real isues with the instalation then started on the back and noticed that its a four link setup my question is do most guys switch to a three link setup in the rear ? Cant figure out why you get two upper three links in a package what s the better setup to run 3 or 4 link in the back i cant seem to find upper 4 link bars listed for this truck

I *THINK* a 4 link gives you less articulation compared to 3 link. I have an ax10 with 3 link in front and rear. But I notice a lot of comp style trucks have a 4 link setup. On my ax10 I get almost 80 degrees. I think a 4 link would tame that so that you wouldn't drop a tire way down, but keep it up in the air to skip past a hole..... I think I'm right...

Thanks for the help i made custom upper link bars and due to the -30 deg weather outside haven't been able to realy push the truck but have all the parts to just switch over to a three link setup if needed

You always want 4 link rcguy. Works better,period. The only time we run 3 link, is when your using a chassis mounted steering (cms) setup. This removes one upper link in favor of a panhard bar for scale looks.

Thanks just got a set of integy 115mm upper links for my rear end but think i may change it to 120 mm to change pinion angles on the driveshaft the 115 work well but think the 120 would give a better scale look
