yeah i keep it well oiled so the suspension works smoothly, its got great articulation :-) also i dropped the body by 2mm so it helps

Nice work on that cool truck. Love the scale details and overall great stance. Color combo looks good in the snow.

Or you could triangulate the leaf ends to allow more flex. That's a cool servo mod you did. I never thought about flipping it like that. That will clean up the undercarriage a bit if the servo will fit that way on mine.

i also added the high torque servo and saver :-)
