How long do you need the uppers and lowers to be? Some run the same length top and bottom (I do) and some use slightly shorter link on top.

What length do you want to tops and bottoms? Would you prefer polished aluminum or Carcon Fifer? I can build the aluminum ones for $35.00 + shipping. I can build the Carbon Fiber links for $45.00 + shipping.

Here's a sneak peek at our upcoming shockless crawler chassis, the Claw. This should be available in mid-June.
For anyone wanting a multi-purpose chassis, our Evolution is the best-priced chassis on the market and is well suited for crawling or absorbing large jumps.
