2. move the upper arm mounting holes on chassis a bit inward.

What I did is number 2 (with my previous M03 chassis for outlaw) :



See the U-shape Suspension shaft. it's from DF-02 U-shaft.... I use it 'cause the bumper comes from TL-01B (buggy style) ...

And make some modification for the front part with this :


Just some info ....the look form the bottom :

The center lower hole on battery part is totally a big mistake, make the chassis flex too much ... For this outlaw class I need the chassis as flex as it can but unfortunately it's too flex...

BTW . thanks for the info about Yaris body.... I don't have it yet ...

SUP:
But for my new M03 chassis (grey chassis) I did only a little mod. 'cause it's lighter than black chassis. The black chassis is stiffer and heavy than the grey one (IMO)


Have a look :



Cut the battery holes to support the side-by-side pack .... I never use stickpack on outlaw chassis


See the grey hubs (fron C-hub and rear hub) .. it's lighter too....
What are the silver hubs from???
