Brushless Snow vehicle suspension question?

probably not but im going for a snow only vehicle that will move down in the snow on bumps and holes. kind of like a snowmobile (or from what i have seen and researched).
here she is almost done, just need to rebuild shocks and install my VXL. the Vxl is in another vehicle till it snows. i am going to have to wait a while. I have had the lipo for a while but have never ran it, this will be my first taste of lipo.
I looked at snowmobile suspension and found what i had laying around that matched it somewhat. Turned out to be a t-maxx bulk head half, arm and shock tower. all angles are correct as they are used on the t-maxx, so i didn't have to worry about making the shock at some weird angle.
still need a bandit body (have to wait till they come in stock from tower (new version))
