extra long gmaxx

[RC-Monster Mike]

I used the stock turnbuckles(stronger).

[coolhandcountry]

that will help. Are the integy aluminum. I notice that they was larger in diameter. I figured they was stronger. Thanks again mike.

[RC-Monster Mike]

Yes, The Integy links are aluminum. The stock steel is much stronger(though also heavier).

[coolhandcountry]

Which way does the arms supposed to go for the front upper? I see that they are different. I wish they had some sort of instructions.

[RC-Monster Mike]

The front upper arms sweep towards the rear(steering knuckles lean towards the rear).

[coolhandcountry]

Okay.
The rpm was easieer to put on. Simple design. lol
I have put one on right one on wrong.

[coolhandcountry]

Does it matter on the rear?

[RC-Monster Mike]

The rear upper arms are placed towards the front of the bulkheads, with the flat part facing the rear.

[coolhandcountry]

Integy would make life simple with a little instructions. Thanks alot mike. You made the job easier. Less putting and taking apart.

[RC-Monster Mike]

Yeah, I agree the suspension would be much easier if it had instructions. My pleasure to help you out. That is the benefit of these forums!

[coolhandcountry]

I not totally sure how to set the suspension up mike. I have it set up but not sure if it is correct. It goes straight and turns right and left when you turn right and left. It handle good so far. I going to try some different setups and see what happens.

Reverse the steering servo then to correct that steering problem.

I set the shocks on the furthest out position on the lower arms. Then, I set the upper shock mounts as far in as possible, at a level that allows maximum downtravel while still allowing the skids to bottom out before the shock (if the shock bottoms out before the sklids touch the ground, this will bend shock shafts and put a lot of stress on the bulks/towers etc.).

[coolhandcountry]

I have it out all the way on bottom. Have slid it over one hole on top and down some. I still running the fastlane towers. The skids hit the ground so i good with that. I not sure on the rear though. It has so many hole and stuff on suspension. Need to get the toe set up and stuff. I like it so far. Can tell a big difference. It will still wheelie. Just have to have real good traction area. Going to put test run on tomorrow. If I break something. Can you get me some replacement parts. :lol

[coolhandcountry]

Hey mike. The suspension was doing pretty good. Until a holly tree jumped in front of me. I don't think my gmaxx supposed to look like this now. I have another question. On the lower arms of the integy. There holes seem to be in farther than most. Does some one make an adapter or something for this.
