Axial suspension

Tech Rookie
I usually make my own links from threaded rod and brake tubing. For rod ends I use either these traxxas number 5525 and 5347.

i put a washer on the end of the ball for my scx10 so it doesnt pull thru the cup
so far its holding good

itll take alot of force to pull thru a 1/4in washer thru it
other parts will break first
if i have more problems with it, ill make an aluminum bracket to replace it, along with the y linkage

That axial set up is the worst i have ever seen.. I have been down the path your going.. i first upgraded to the steel Y piece.. then steel ball.. then washers to stop it pulling through.. eventually it snapped the mount with the hole in it.
My answer... I am doing this right now in fact..
You have got to do a 4 point top suspension set up.
I just bought Level3-RC's gear to do it..
the 4 point for the rear.. and the 4 point and a Panhard bar with servo mount for the front
It was really cheap on ebay..
What else is necissary to complete:
Longer top suspension posts.. i have worked out i need 80mm ones on the front and 90mm ones for the rear.. x2 each... not complete so dont quote me just yet
Shock mounts.. you need to actually raise the height of the SCX10 to make it work.. again.. real cheap on ebay for 4 height raising kits.. heaps of different ones available.

^^ You've assumed the user is running an SCX10. According to the sig, it's an AX10. Not sure if it's the older style or new with wider AR60's.
Being a little more clear on WHICH Axial suspension you are looking to upgrade would certainly net some more informative results.

Scorpion was the old style...

looks like the upper linkage mounts on the axels are similar betwen the ax10 and scx10
is that the join that is pulling through?
