Naa, camera too low and at a weird angle I think made it look that way.

Sat too low for my tastes, now i put the stock bumpstops on the shocks where they were. Raises it a tad and all seems good.

Experienced guys....

I want to do a 4 link setup on the axial.
I have made the rear mount (similar to the TCS boomerang) and some side mounts so that I can use longer links (the original lower links actually, I have bent links now.)
Any opinions on if this will work or?
If it's going to be a hunk of crap I'll put it back to stock but if it will be better I will do it to the front too.

You'll be fine, Does it still torque twist a lot now with the 4-link on the rear? If it does, take the driver side link and move it to the top side of the boomerang, that should help the twist! That's the next mod i'm gonna do, working on my dig set-up now! Gonna be "Bubba dig" LMAO

I haven't run it since I did that.
My pack has been on the charger since 10 last night at .1 amp, we'll see how much it takes from pretty much dead.
