So, I just ordered some new shocks to put on it and was inspecting to see if I could figure out why the body mounts seemed to be about one body hole too far apart. I think I may have bent the chassis!!!

The rear of the chassis seems to slope downward slightly. Is this the way they are designed? It seems like if the chassis was going to bend, it would bend the other way. Here are the pics, someone please help!

Welcome to the forum craxxmaxx and bushboy...

I think i agree with bushboy... it might just be a simple case of the G4 chassis being slightly longer than the stock chassis... or did you have a little accident during the build...


Oh yeah... I also like your allen keys...
