I have buggy shocks on the rear of my SPV2 chassis. Nothing to stop you from using anything you want really. They would probably work better on the front with the modified mount points.

Do you have room to mount the shocks on the inside of the chassis? Looks like it could be done. MIGHT hit that cross bar on the ends of the chassis plates. You will most likely have to move the axle mounting point inward as well to get the right clearance and moving the shocks in towards the center of the axle will put more leverage on them while articulating but that can usually be compensated for with shock tuning and using limiters on the shocks. To much articulation can get you into trouble.

Hows the low end and the start up power on that motor? I ran an outrunner on one of my scale rigs once and wasn't really happy with it. Probably to small of a motor for my rig. A sidewinder with a 55t lathe and 3S lipo is my favorite setup. I love the wheel speed and low end control.
