New to 1/5 scale, I'm going to Build D.B.X.L from Chassis up. Got manual, ordering screw kits and tamiya thread lock today. Was wondering if Fid 4 wheel hydraulic brake system V2 will work on D.B.X.L.? I know about extended hubs and hub carriers. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
 
Interested in seeing this. I bought a RTR and have been upgrading slowly. Finished with my shocks last night and going to run it this weekend. Want to see if I finally got rid of the nose dive.

Be interested to hear what you've done, if you've fixed the nose dive issue. I have replaced the stock springs with DDM HD springs which has improved things. Thanks.
 
I previously replaced the oil with 5k diff oil and the 20% stiffer spring. It helped a bit, but not enough. Was still doing endos.

So I plugged the holes and re-drilled more and smaller. Put 35w shock oil with the stiffer springs.

They rebound much faster so I hope this will help a lot more.

I'll post a pic later of how I drilled and will report back after this weekends bash.
